About Tom Nelson
I am an experienced lead project designer pursuing an architectural aesthetic that is bio-climatically responsive, creates humane space and is meaningful in its context.The computer is a fundamental tool in my design process. I am currently interested in the intersection of digital analysis and sustainable design - enabling more informed decision making early in the process. Also, the influence of gaming technology on architectural visualization - advancing understanding of the proposed design and creating an immersive experience for the designer as well as the intended users of the space. My recent research has been focused on achieving zero net energy performance in high density multifamily residential projects, with the goal of providing the development community with ways to achieve their ROI goals while lowering GHG\'s.Examples of my project work:Della Strada Jesuit Residence - Gonzaga University, Spokane WA - LEED Gold CertificationMesa Court Expansion - Student Housing, UC Irvine CA - LEED Platinum Certification1101 2nd Ave Office Building, Seattle WA - LEED C&S Gold Certified Puyallup City Hall, Puyallup WA - LEED Gold CertificationMedical Education Building, UC Irvine CA - LEED Platinum CertificationTransit Headquarters & Maintenance Facility, Santa Clarita CA - LEED Gold CertificationSpecialties: Architectural Design, Integrated & Sustainable Design, LEED Certification, Building Information Modeling, Building Integrated Analysis
