Zakrzewski Architectural Engineering, LLC, (ZAE), specializes in detailed, physics-based simulations of building energy consumption and demand. ZAE leverages the most advanced building energy modeling (BEM) software and tools to assist in the design, construction and operation of high-performance, energy-efficient and climate resilient buildings.   

As a trusted partner, ZAE works with architects, engineers, and building owners to blend building science, design, and engineering to accelerate towards a more resilient built environment while balancing triple-bottom-line economics (financial, environmental, and social value). The goal is to inform strategic design decisions with data-driven insights and optimize energy performance from the initial design phase through ongoing operations. Our agile advisory and consulting approach helps to identify and inform cost-effective strategies for reducing site energy consumption and upstream carbon emissions. The firm is dedicated to supporting performative approaches to building energy code compliance, green building certification and sustainable real estate investments and development. 

ZAE believes that a low-carbon future is forged by integrative architecture and engineering. Our purpose is to reimagine the built environment as an opportunity to regenerative and adaptive for a more sustainable tomorrow.
