Environmental mission and strategy (ESG)
When most of us consider what green, or eco-building means we immediately think of energy-efficient windows and insulation but aren’t really familiar with much beyond these elements, essential though they may be.
The fact is, green building involves significantly more than merely energy-efficient windows and quality insulation.
Healthy, Conscious & Harmonious Mandala Homes
A proud partner of Built Green, a Master Builders Association certification, we share in their holistic approach utilizing advanced building technologies to promote responsible sustainability practices. And, like them, we consider any construction project as a sum of its parts– everything from site orientation, building materials, HVAC equipment, windows, water and electrical consumption, to builder practices – as we strive to stay ahead of the curve in sustainable construction.
The Mandala model is based on employing the latest technologies to ensure a healthier, more durable building with a lower environmental impact, and, ultimately, costs savings to the client.
Our innovative Off-Site Manufacture (OSM) round home construction does just that. Every Mandala home is successful at presenting minimal impact on the environment while providing exquisitely designed and inspired spaces promoting a sense of light and harmony.
Incorporating consciousness in all of our product choices is also essential. We look to programs such as ENERGY STAR to help save our clients thousands of kilowatt-hours of electricity while also achieving deep emissions reductions. Every product that has earned the ENERGY STAR label is independently certified to deliver not only quality, performance, and savings but a level of predictable and reliable efficiency that conforms to the values of Mandala Homes.
Sacred, Sustainable Living
Integrating the sacred into everyday living, Mandala Homes pursues a vision inspired by the harmony existing within round spaces found in nature and throughout human evolution.
Intelligent in design and cutting-edge efficiency in construction, round, faceted walls and an abundance of natural light provide the founding principles for any Mandala home or commercial space.
Our homes offer panoramic views and incredible acoustics and, with few to no corners to trap cooler air, a Mandala home is, above all, energy-efficient. Round houses are also of superior strength capable of standing up to extreme weather conditions including heavy snowfall and hurricanes.
With its superior quality, durability, and aesthetics, a Mandala home also maintains its desirability and high market value.
Whether yours is a tiny cottage, a multi-level home or a commercial building our high quality handcrafted round building suits just about any construction requirement or individual style.
