LORING provided complete mechanical, electrical, plumbing and fire protection engineering design services for a new private school that fosters the concept of sustainability and environmental stewardship.

The first phase included a 14,000 square feet primary (K-6) school and the second phase included a 5,000 square feet Arts Barn. LORING also provided master planning services for the campus with an ultimate build-out of approximately 90,000 square feet.

The building design includes many sustainable features, including storm water remediation systems, rainwater harvesting systems, daylighting strategies, photovoltaic systems, natural ventilation strategies, heat recovery and geothermal heat pump systems. The project recently received its Gold Level LEED Certification and was referred to by the New York Times as "the greenest building in New Jersey" (29 December 2004). Additional responsibilities included energy modeling for mechanical systems selection and optimization.
