Environmentally Sustainable Design (ESD) focuses on resource efficiency, aiming to reduce lifetime operational costs and minimise maintenance requirements. Driven by environmental benefits and legal mandates (such as energy efficiency targets and policies), this design approach considers both usability and amenity. Factors like daylight utilisation, energy and water consumption, insulation levels, thermal passive performance, and the choice of double-glazing and facade materials play a crucial role. The primary goal is to minimise a building or space’s environmental impact by reducing greenhouse gas emissions, conserving potable water, and enhancing the health and well-being of occupants and visitors.
Some of our services we offer under ESD:
- Green Star
