Every client and every designer can move towards more sustainable construction solutions, if a conscious acceptance of the principles, is made at the projects outset and then wherever further opportunity presents. The most sustainable approach can then be identified and taken.

 

Sustainable design necessitates the close integration of building form, its passive and active environmental systems and the immediate environment of its site. Response to the local microclimate, typography, flora etc., will create a uniquely individual and appropriate solution, strong enough to create its own identity and to reinforce a ‘sense of place’.
