Our Mission
The Center for Sustainable Building Research's (CSBR) role is to "transform the built environment in ways that provide for the ecological, economic, and social needs of the present without compromising those of the future," and to build eco-literacy in the broader community. CSBR creates viable pathways capable of transforming the built environment in the state and region to be a powerful model of regenerative design and development for deep sustainability on a global stage.
