Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars
Green Sand Architecture + Sustainability is a unique blend, Matt Goyke, architect and his wife Rhonda, a professional sustainability advisor. Our goal was to find an architect that would be a team player and design an Off Grid beautiful home that was healthy for us and non toxic to the environment. Our property site had some very challenging design issues. Green Sand's professional attitude was wonderful and amplified when they created a stellar team of engineers and professionals work together to craft designs, and solve challenges. We continued to work closely with Green Sand Architecture + Sustainability while we were in the building phase. Their professional knowledge, experience, and positive attitude shone through until we moved into our award winning home. Pa Ka Makani Farm was awarded LEED Platinum in October 2014. In the end, after all was said and done, we now call Matt and Rhonda our friends.

Comment from Green Sand Architecture + Sustainability:
Thank you Anne (and Andrew) for the beautiful review. Brought tears to my eyes. We feel the same way. Loved finishing the project so you could move in but hated finishing the project because it was so fun and positive working with you.
