When the Energy Foundation, a partnership of philan-thropic investors that promotes clean-energy technolo-gies, outgrew its offices in a former military hospital on San Francisco's Presidio, it saw an opportunity to recreate its headquarters not only to accommodate its rapidly growing staff, but also to better reflect its mission. The organization's new home, designed by San Francisco-based TannerHecht Architecture, demonstrates a com-mitment to preservation while reflecting the foundation's progressive outlook through its extensive use of sustainable building strategies and technologies. It is the first project in the city to receive LEED Platinum for Commercial Interiors (CI) certification.
