Description:
Red Lake Nation in Minnesota will soon have a community center that uses best practices for sustainable design. Simple design considerations such as building orientation, location of windows, selection of long-life cycle materials, low-emitting interior materials and finishes, as well as the use of sun shades will enhance the performance and longevity of the building. The building is designed to maximize energy efficiency by utilizing solar technology, water heated panels, and geothermal heat pumps to heat and cool the building. Strategically placed windows will maximize daylight interior lighting which results in energy efficiency. © 2011 Indian Country Today Media Network, LLC, 9/7/11.
