Associate Director, Head of Design Technology

At Allies and Morrison, we approach every project with a deep appreciation for the intrinsic connection between architecture, urbanism, and sustainability. From the outset, Orbital Stack's advanced climate analysis tools have complemented our rigorous design process, allowing us to explore concepts that are responsive to the local context, and grounded in sustainable principles. One of the hallmarks of our collaboration with Orbital Stack is the emphasis on flexibility and adaptability. The analysis integrates well with our existing technology ecosystem and allows us to explore design options efficiently within the surrounding environment. As we continue our journey with Orbital Stack, we are excited at the prospect of driving new and innovative forms of sustainability analysis in our design process.
