The goals of sustainability are to avoid harmful and wasteful materials, reduce impact on land use by reuse of existing building sites, ensure healthy environment, clean air, good natural lightingand natural ventilation. The initial concept is developed TO employ design strategies for sustainably and energy efficiency as described inA two‐tier approach.
1. NATUREWISE MEASURES
All buildings to be designed with high performance standards to reduce demand for energy and reduce waste and cut down all emissionstozero where possible.
2. NATURERICH SOLUTIONS
This Include design and technologies for energy generation such as solar, wind and geothermal where possible, to meet the already reduced demand of the building for energy.In addition to energy generation, solar panels (located…) will contribute a sculpturalelement tothe complex.
