Michel Labrie Architect (MLA) is a full service architecture firm offering focused expertise in sustainable design. The firm provides architectural design and research services related to green buildings and urban environments. In the five years since MLA was founded, the firm has been involved in a range of projects from small scale residential homes to collaborative work on large institutional and infrastructure projects. To work on large projects, MLA has established strong relationships with large innovative architectural offices, engineering firms and multi-disciplinary consulting companies. We have developed time-honoured tools and processes to ensure that each project’s unique sustainability goals are achieved in the most cost effective and highly performing manner possible.
MLA is highly invested in sustainability research and we have experience with projects that include regenerative design concepts, the Living Building Challenge, the Envision Rating System, and the Sustainable Sites Initiative.
MLA staff have collectively been involved in over 20 LEED projects ranging from Silver to Platinum performance. Regardless of the specific green rating system framework, we use sustainability as the primary driver for all our design and technical solutions.
