The Texas Specialist Center, which is 6,300 square feet, was
designed by architects who have extensive experience in
environmentally friendly buildings. Because the overall
health of his community is a high priority for Dr. Wagnon,
this building was created to be a healthy place for both
patients and the environment.
A brief description of the energy efficient building:
 Completed in 1996, The Center conserves about $5,000 in
energy and thousands of gallons of water each year. A pair
of 7,200-gallon above-ground water tanks are connected to
the rainwater collection system; the water is used to
irrigate the xeriscape landscaping.
-
A curved window wall
opens lobby to the surrounding forest.
-
Celestory windows placed
near the clinic’s high ceilings allow daylight to fill
the space; the windows are operable and, together with
ceiling fans, provide air circulation and ventilation.
Every aspect of the
building's design was affected by Dr. Wagnon’s environmental
goals: from sitting in environmental chairs, passive solar
design, to
installation of a rainwater system. Many windows are
operable, reducing energy costs by decreasing the amount
of electric light required and by providing ventilation.
Photovoltaic panels were installed on the roof, electricity
generated is stored in batteries for an emergency backup for
the building's computer and security systems.
Improving indoor air quality was a high priority. An
important factor in the development of environmental illness
is long-term exposure. Every effort was made to select materials that did not
include or produce potentially harmful substances.
Mechanical systems were carefully cleaned and then sealed to
further improve air quality.
