  • Newark, NJ (1888PressRelease) August 12, 2021 - Vincent Myers, AIA, LEED AP, President, DIGroup Architecture LLC, was recently highlighted In Greenbuild’s latest white paper, “The Business Case for Sustainable Spaces.” In the article, Myers offered insight on sustainable development and how senior leadership can make critical adjustments to address climate change.

    Many companies are committed to conscious sustainability efforts, but it remains a challenge to get the entire company and decision-makers on board. As a leader in the field, Myers brought attention to the relationship between economics and sustainability. “Businesses can now make the strong case that economic and environmental sustainability are fully interwoven. The best advocates are those at any level that are knowledgeable and know how to communicate the economic value of sustainable development."

    When asked how to tackle greener building objectives, Myers remarked, “Objections are typically based on lack of knowledge… which is why incentives need to continue to provide the necessary spark.” He offered additional insights on sustainability throughout the piece.

    Established in 2006 in New Brunswick New Jersey, DIGroup Architecture is one of a handful of African-American owned architectural firms in the region. Since establishing a Philadelphia Office in 2019, the firm has 20 active projects that include libraries, parks and recreation facilities, healthcare and educational institutions, and civic clients.

    ABOUT DIGROUP ARCHITECTURE:
    DIGroup Architecture is one of the area’s largest minority-owned and disadvantaged (MBE-DBE) architectural firms specializing in architecture, planning, interior design and environmental graphics, signage and wayfinding services for Education, Healthcare, Senior Living and Civic clients. The firm is known for regenerating urban areas through redevelopment, preservation, adaptive reuse and new construction. The company takes great pride in its ethnically and culturally diverse staff who are passionate about architecture.

    DIG originated as a consortium of several small architectural firms who formed an alliance to collaborate and compete for large projects issued by the NJ Schools Development Authority that revitalized the state’s most under-served public school districts. This collaboration became so successful at delivering many of the state’s most significant, community-centered design projects that the firms formally merged in 2006. The profound impact these projects had on the most basic human need of health and wellness, brought a whole new meaning and purpose to the firm. From that point forward, “Architecture for Change” became our story, design philosophy and commitment to clients to re-imagine structures and environments to unite people, enhance well-being and enrich communities. DIG’s success has not gone unnoticed; in 2021 the company was ranked #13 in top Minority Businesses and #15 in top Architectural firms by NJBIZ and #29 in Philadelphia Business Journal.

    Today, DIGroup Architecture is exponentially growing; its reach spanning New Jersey, Pennsylvania and New York. For more information on the firm, please contact: Debra Koehler, at dkoehler ( @ ) digrouparchitecture dot com or 732.249.6242 X110.
