EarthCraft

Southface and the Greater Atlanta Home Builders Association developed the EarthCraft high-performance building certification program in 1999 to address the challenging energy, water, and climate conditions in the Southeast. Providing a practical blueprint for green building and sustainable development, the EarthCraft family of programs has grown from single-family homes to include multifamily units, light commercial spaces, historical preservation, and community certifications. Over the course of EarthCraft’s history, more than 50,000 homes, multifamily units, light commercial spaces, and communities have been certified.
