Practicing in Portland and Boston, architect Richard Renner has designed residential, institutional, commercial, and exhibit projects. His firm, Richard Renner|Architects, specializes in environmentally responsible design; two recent residences received LEED-Home Platinum certifications. Current work includes residences throughout New England, comprehensive renovations for Maine College of Art, and the adaptive reuse of an historic building in New Bedford, Massachusetts.

“More and more, I have been focusing on ways to integrate good design with superior building performance, on developing humanistic, place-specific buildings that meet or exceed critical performance goals. This effort depends on an evolving (and, as yet, imperfect) understanding of building science, a critical analysis of many widely accepted elements of contemporary architecture, and constant attention to the actual performance of design elements (anticipated and, when possible, verified).”
