Cultivating a Replicable and Transparent Wood Supply Chain at PDX Airport
When phase one of the new main terminal at Portland International Airport (PDX) opens, it will be the first major airport in the US with a mass timber roof.
Our design process guides us to plan for today’s requirements and prepare for tomorrow’s unknowns. Here we pull back the curtain on our practice to share that process with you.

Greener buildings mean healthier communities and a healthier bottom line. Healthcare decarbonization – reducing the emissions from building and operating facilities – is the new frontier.
The Colorado Mass Timber Coalition is a collaborative initiative dedicated to advancing the development of a mass timber ecosystem in the state.
We asked our ZGF sustainability leaders across the firm about the solutions and innovations that are inspiring their work.
ZGF is honored to join the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Health Sector Climate Pledge, standing with our nation’s leading healthcare organizations in recognizing and rising to the challenge of climate change.
Designs for the airports of tomorrow must place sustainability front and center. Sharron van der Meulen, Managing Partner of ZGF’s Portland office, shares her thoughts on what the future holds.
Concrete: A Pragmatic Approach to Lowering Embodied Carbon is an easy-to-use interactive guide for reducing embodied carbon of concrete in the built environment.
Earlier this month California became the first state to adopt unprecedented building code changes to limit embodied carbon in non-residential buildings and K-12 schools.
ZGF has joined the First Movers Coalition to send a strong market demand signal for the emerging low and zero carbon technologies essential for a net-zero economy and the impactful role architects can have in that transition.
Designing environments that effectively support world changing discovery require the weaving together of many disparate ideas, functions, and needs—much like scientific discovery itself.
Put aside your visions of rustic log cabins. Wood is experiencing a rebrand.
