occupants spend most of their time and are most at risk. Landscaping and landscape
maintenance are scrutinized from a green vantage point. The book concludes with

**“We believe that good design is green design and things that last for many lifetimes
are things worth buying,” says Dennis.  “Our clients are encouraged to buy less,
but buy the best they can afford. At our firm the concepts of luxury and green co-
exist. Our definition of luxury, however, isn’t having a lot of things—it is valuing
quality over quantity. The quality we are talking about is organic, renewable, recyclable,
healthy, and beautiful.”**
