Sustainable design is about creating solutions that meet environmental, social and economic objectives in a balanced and complete way. Elementa designs are based around the following principles:
- Ease of build (KISS)
- Fit for Purpose
- Resource Efficient
- Resilient/Robust
- Adaptable/attractive
- Innovative
- Reduction of Carbon Footprint
- Whole Life Costing (recyclable)
- Water efficient |
|
- Waste reduction
- Ease of commissioning and operational simplicity
- Maintainable with low running costs
As part of this process we provide comprehensive advice related to sustainability planning policies and offer advice on BREEAM/EcoHomes using our team of experienced assessors and facilitators. We also carry out feasibility studies for Low/Zero Carbon technologies including Combined Heat and Power, Tri-Generation and on site renewables.
