Simulations that moved
real capital.
Each card opens to reveal the full simulation story — methodology, before/after metrics, and tools deployed.
One Pacific Tower
A 42-story mixed-use tower facing aggressive Title 24 targets. We ran 180 EnergyPlus parametric variants across glazing specs, shading geometries, and mechanical plant sizing to find the optimal envelope-system interaction.
Riverside Commons
A 240-unit multifamily development targeting LEED Gold. Thermal mass optimization and heat pump system sizing reduced the ASHRAE 90.1 baseline by 31%, qualifying for $2.1M in utility incentives.
Meridian Campus Retrofit
An 18-building institutional campus built between 1962–1988. We developed an OpenStudio district energy model capturing loop interactions, sequenced retrofit packages by payback period, and delivered a 15-year capital plan.
Harbor Point Lab
Laboratory buildings are energy-intensive by nature — 100% OA requirements create enormous HVAC loads. We modeled heat recovery wheel configurations across 12 climate scenarios to find the optimal energy recovery strategy.
Solano Mixed-Use
A 180,000 SF mixed-use development where the developer wanted to maximize daylighting without HVAC penalties. Climate-Based Daylight Modelling in Radiance guided the external shading design, achieving 76% sDA while cutting cooling loads.
Northgate Logistics Hub
A 1.2M SF distribution center where lighting and refrigeration dominate the energy budget. We modeled LED/daylighting integration and refrigeration heat recovery to beat ASHRAE by 19% — enough to qualify for Texas utility rebates.
Light isn't aesthetic. It's a load calculation.
Every glazing decision affects cooling loads, daylighting autonomy, and occupant comfort simultaneously. We model all three in a single coupled simulation — Radiance for luminance, EnergyPlus for thermal response.
Fixed scope. Engineer-grade
