Courtyard Community Architecture

David Cagle Architect:
Designs for building a smart and sustainable future.
We draw upon the successful patterns of historical courtyard cities and translate them into modern communities.

Existing Infrastructure 

  • Detached houses do not accommodate mixed use, commercial space and work/live neighborhoods.
  • Wood frame construction: labor intensive and poorly insulated
  • Materials are imported, increasing carbon footprint and decreasing local job opportunity

Courtyard communities 
  • Shared courtyard walls create privacy while promoting community
  • Private indoor/outdoor living is maximized
  • Landscaping is planned and woven into the architectural fabric
  • Blocks are arranged in a simple grid to generate a greater community context
Grounded Infrastructure Solutions' technologies support David Cagle's Courtyard Community designs.  They present environmentally friendly construction for an innovative and sustainable future.
