Listen to this episode and be guided by our guest into the world of better and efficient buildings.
Michael Murphy is responsible for Business Development at Murphy Brothers Constructing Inc. – an award-winning general contracting firm founded by brothers Sean & Chris Murphy. They started with small remodeling jobs in their early years, but their outstanding reputation has led to larger projects in the greater Westchester, lower Hudson Valley, and southern Fairfield region.
From their experience in building a Dream Home with Westchester Magazine, they realized that building green is important in what they do. They created a monthly series of continuing education presentations for building design professionals, highlighting energy-efficiency and sustainability as we head towards a carbon-neutral built environment.
Murphy Brothers Contracting is vitally concerned with the impact of their work on the environment, and the people who use their buildings. The company has developed the philosophy that building green is simply building smart. They believe that sustainable construction methods and materials are not only good for the environment – but are also good for business and the people who live and work in their buildings.
Murphy Brothers Contracting participated in the first Gold LEED for Homes project and the first NAHB Gold-Certified home, and is currently working on the first multifamily project designed to FitWel-certification.

SuperNova #1. The simple aspect of saving energy today can be accomplished in more ways than one. While we wait for the next big thing, there are several things that are happening today that you can start and can help us get into energy savings. There are many solutions available today. Don’t wait for tomorrow. The time to wait is over.
SuperNova #2. Eliminating waste is a big aspect of what we’re about and the materials we provide, and of course, everything that drives to making our living environments more comfortable while conserving energy and bringing resiliency. We continue to make an impact, and that’s what keeps us motivated every day. That’s exactly the reason why we get up and do what we do.
SuperNova #3. Now it’s a question of scale. The more phase change bio PCM materials that we can make and put out there, the more carbon emissions we’re able to reuse, the better it is on the comfort level, more people are able to access food, food doesn’t get thrown away, and the impact of all these is less plastic is thrown away.
