GBD Architects

Official: Final Type II Approval secured! 🎉

Big things are coming to Portland State University! The New Student Housing project along the South Park Blocks has reached a major milestone, bringing us one step closer to a dynamic first-year community and infusing fresh energy into the heart of downtown Portland.

This milestone reflects the power of a truly collaborative, thoughtful team. We’re proud to be part of the group shaping the future of PSU’s campus!
We can’t wait to see this project come to life. ✨

This year for month we thought we’d go big–we think GBD’s commitment to our planet should be clear enough already, but in case it isn’t, we’ve officialized our commitment with a Climate Action Plan! The CAP not only lists our current sustainability achievements to date, but also identifies areas where we can improve (we’re always improving), and our internal Sustainability score cards featured in the CAP are tools we’ve devised to hold us accountable for ever greener and more human design. You can find our Climate Action Plan under the tab on our website, or at the link in our bio (or come visit us and see some snippets from the CAP hanging in our lobby).
