| As an organic farm-to-table restaurant, it makes sense that the winning design revolves around its sustainable attributes. Using natural materials like stone and reclaimed, sustainably harvested wood; low-VOCs in paints, coatings, and varnishes; and a combination of LED, jellied fluorescents. and window shading to create a soft color without incandescent bulbs, the co-op-owned Founding Farmers received Certified Green Restaurant and LEED Gold certification — the first LEED Gold restaurant in Washington, D.C. |
