about us

Edifice Upstate is a Design & Build agency in the West Catskills focused on the design and development of affordable solar powered homes. Founded by Marc Thorpe & Claire Pijoulat in partnership with local builders and sustainable technology companies, we have over 10 years of experience in the region. The intention behind EU is to provide a turn key solution to owning an affordable contemporary home with integrated sustainable technology. We believe that we need to take responsibility for our energy consumption by taking control of our own power. Tomorrow will be less so we focus on quality not quantity. Our goal is to build a future systemically integrated with nature for ourselves, our children and future generations.
