Grovehaus

Grovehaus is the first CLT structure to break ground in Miami-Dade and the city of Miami. Grovehaus's decision to assert wood as the sole structural approach re-establishes the connection between regional ecologies and renewable material resources through solid wood building products. The project's pivotal design objective is the utilization of cross-laminated timber [CLT] panels as the construction methodology. The design team worked closely with regional manufacturers, structural engineers, and thermal analyses to develop innovative strategies that reduce material, energy, and carbon generation. Grovehaus is committed to the use of Southern Yellow Pine, sourced in-state and manufactured in the southeast, materials regionally grown and processed for regional needs. The innovative envelope assembly exploits the CLT's thermal performance and pre-manufactured precision processing to reduce construction timelines by streamlining the erection phase and on-site trade worker.
