Michael Broili
Michael Broili, principal of Living Systems Design, is a passionate proponent of sustainable development. In 1997 he put his beliefs and considerable skills to work and established Living Systems Design, a consulting and design company specializing in water management. Living Systems Design offered positive and sustainable solutions to many of the issues surrounding our most valuable and most abused resource, water.
Working with local communities, organizations, builders and homeowners, he developed systems that mitigated existing storm water runoff problems; helped homeowners solve gray water waste issues using earth-friendly and natural materials and concepts; helped homeowners and small businesses conserve water through rainwater harvesting; and designed water programs that helped restore damaged ecosystems.
As the company grew, Michael reached out to the community with practical training programs and lectures that raised awareness about the need to wisely use and conserve our valuable water resource. These programs were offered to individuals in the community as well as to schools, businesses, cities and counties that were looking for insight into ways to help solve water problems inherent with the growth of their respective organizations.
