SCOTT KELLY

Scott Kelly is a principal at Re:Vision Architecture, an architecture and planning firm committed to re-visioning and restoring the balance between natural and built environments. Beginning his career with historic preservation and adaptive re-use projects, Scott became interested in the building elements and methods that cause buildings to endure. Scott also studied how buildings were designed to work with nature prior to mechanical heating and cooling. While Scott was an early adopter of the US Green Building Council’s LEED® benchmarking system, his work continues with several “living and zero energy” projects.

Advocacy is an important part of Scott’s work and he serves as co-chair of the Philadelphia AIA Committee on the Environment and is a founding Board Member of the Delaware Valley Green Building Council (DVGBC). Scott is currently teaching as part of Philadelphia University's Master's of Science in Sustainable Design.

In addition to leading the way with green architecture, Scott also consults to design firms, developers, building owners, and manufacturers who are interested in green design charrettes, sustainable design and LEED® certification. While Scott has worked on over 100 LEED® projects around the nation, including several platinum level, his favorite projects are close to his native Philadelphia.
