principles & practices

When used in the context of building, "green" refers to using methods and technologies that take into consideration a proposed development's impact on the environment. It means to build with the future in mind and create a project that can be recycled overtime. WECCO of Charleston, LLC develops and constructs with that in mind. WECCO takes a holistic view to green construction. Projects address natural light, natural ventilation, green roofs, filtering storm water run-off, heat island effects, energy consumption and its resident’s well-being but the overall goal is always the same, constructing buildings that are built to last.

While using influences from Savannah, GA and Charleston, SC WECCO develops projects within existing infrastructure, designing and building multi-use buildings that can evolve over time. WECCO also seeks out buildings that have fallen into neglect and need to be repositioned, envisioning the possibilities in a building that seems unusable and finding the right marriage between user and space.
