The Bullitt Center: Pioneering Sustainability in Commercial Buildings

How A Seattle Project Earned The Title Of ’world’s Greenest Commercial’ Building

This $30 million "living laboratory," designed by The Miller Hull Partnership, distinguishes itself from other sustainable projects with … the exclusion of 350 common toxic chemicals - including PVC, lead, mercury, phthalates, BPA and formaldehyde - along with a strict energy and water budget that aims for self-sufficiency under the Living Building Challenge.

"… According to office workers, the building is made up of "spectacular views, ample natural light and almost distracting quiet." This is due in part to the exposed, 13-foot-high ceilings and 10-foot-high windows on the upper floors that contribute to an airy loftflike feel and maximize on daylight. It may be the first heavy-timber mid-rise building erected in Seattle since the 1920's, using native Douglas Fir certified by the Forest Stewardship Council for the timber and steel frame."
