Acknowledgments

Many thanks to the following clients and designers of these exemplary projects who gave generously of their time to provide all of the information and insights into various aspects of their design and performance. Special thanks for their patience with the videoconference calls and follow-up emails about design details, their extra work putting together the requested performance data and their time spent reviewing the final copy for accuracy. Without their openness and supportive cooperation, the case studies would not be the guiding models that they are intended to be.
