44.jpg Walkin’ in Sunshine Martin Brunt finds huge satisfaction as a solar designer in helping people tie into the utility grid, and not only cut their electricity bills, but sell power back to the utility company. He is on the forefront of designing and building prefabricated solar arrays for dual-use carports, canopies and awnings that harness the power of the sun while at the same time provide shade below, and minimize any compromise to the roofing envelope. He’s been an Ashlar-Vellum software user for almost 20 years. Cobalt™ CAD and 3D modeling software has helped him solve a number of design problems across the industries in which he’s been a part.  "Walkin’ in Sunshine" Story - 8.5x11 PDF File (562.09kb)  "Walkin’ in Sunshine" Story - A4 PDF File (505.29kb)
