luray design build | november 2011  Atlantis Energy Systems Atlantis Energy Systems is the only producer of solar power slate tiles. It's no longer necessary to 'add' solar panels to a roof. Now your roof 'is' the solar panel and its beautiful too.   OTIS Gen2 Elevator Otis has introduced its Gen2 system. It's 50-75% more efficient. It doesn't require a separate motor room. It uses a new flat belt drive system that requires no hydraulic oil reservoir. They've also improved on the environmental footprint of their manufacturing facility.  Coming from a design and build background it seemed a natural progression for us to move-on to include the materials, means and methods and some of the more extensive elements required to produce a completely sustainable environment. So we are developing this build blog to do just that. We will be showcasing some of the best and most innovative in sustainable building products.     luray design notes is an emerging resource for the interior design community.
