THRIVE Collaborative - Ann Arbor Information

THRIVE Collaborative is an Ann Arbor and Detroit, MI based building, real estate development, design, and consulting firm dedicated to creating the life enhancing communities needed for the 22nd Century. We're scheduled to break ground in 2020 on one of the world's first Living Community Challenge targeted developments - Veridian at County Farm - a 100% all-electric neighborhood with no gas lines or combustion appliances of any kind. The project is highlighted in the United Nations Local Projects Challenge for Accelerating the Global Sustainable Development Goals. www.VeridianAtCountyFarm.com THRIVE’s mission is to accelerate the shift towards beautiful, healthy, and environmentally responsive design and lead the transformation to a truly sustainable human-built environment that is nature rich and ecologically restorative. We use intellectual rigor combined with expert collaborations to create transformative solutions. We take a holistic approach to addressing critical community needs and fostering connectivity by using the framework of the seven performance categories of the Living Building Challenge and the Living Community Challenge: Place, Water, Energy, Health & Happiness, Materials, Equity and Beauty. THRIVE’s work has been featured in seven books on urban planning, net zero energy and sustainable design and building.
