Inova Health Center – Oakville Certified LEED Gold
Share

Inova Health Center – Oakville, designed by Ballinger and Ennead, was certified LEED Gold by the United States Green Building Council. The achievement underscores Inova’s commitment to advancing sustainability and resilient urban growth.
Located in the Oakville Triangle neighborhood of Alexandria, Virginia, the building is part of a mixed-use development accessible by multiple modes of public transportation. Its exterior features a custom double glass screen made with tension cables and fritted glass shading, as well as a vertical fin shading system. The façade articulation is driven by solar performance and, together with high-efficiency mechanical systems, reduced energy consumption. Stormwater control measures, including a significant green roof with an outdoor terrace and native plantings, support water and ecosystem resilience.
With Atelier Ten as sustainability designer, the project demonstrates the value of an integrated team to deliver high-performance, environmentally responsible buildings.
