Collaborators

It's through the hard work and foresight of these fantastic firms that we enjoy flourishing relationships, delivering healthy homes and resilient works of architecture. In this industry, the project engagements are often long, complex, and sometimes intense as the teams navigate difficult decision making pressures, schedule and pace that can compress thinking, and unknown externalities together. Because this is the reality of our work, the relationships we have with our collaborators, project partners, and industry friends are indispensable and are the actual core of our business. There are many engineering firms out there who can run calculations, many drafting entities that can draw and model systems, and many consultants who can advise on choices. To bring those qualities together in one firm that has a very clear, ethical, and forward-looking vision and mission is a difficult needle to thread. But that’s who Positive Energy is and that’s why we believe that it only makes sense to work with high performing project partners who share our values and want to leave the world better than it was through the work we do together. We are extremely lucky to work in this space and we are constantly in awe of our creative, brilliant, and hard working collaborators and colleagues. Working well together is Positive Energy’s culture of kindness in action.

“I have been working in custom residential architecture in Austin, Texas for over 15 years. Our firm prides itself on thorough attention to detail, and to the resolution of technical issues especially as they relate to the broader experience of the architecture. For many years I had sought out a partner that could work with us on the integration of HVAC systems. We tried everything: working with design/build installers in the design phase, subcontracting with mechanical engineers whose specialty was obviously commercial, and reaching out to companies outside of Austin that claimed to specialize in residential HVAC. The results ranged from modest regrets to full on disappointment. When we came across Positive Energy, we finally felt like we had a dedicated and knowledgeable team member that would help us take our projects to another level of resolution. It has truly been a successful partnership.”
