April 24, 2002 We believe that sustainable development is both affordable and possible within current market constraints. Each building element has as many functions as possible integrated into its construction and final use. This enables fewer components and finishes to be required in the completed building, allowing those remaining to be constructed to a more durable specification and reduced environmental impact. Buildings incorporating renewable energy harvesting devices and passive energy saving features are incorporated into every design decision rather than bolted on as an expensive afterthought. Being conversant with all the competing parameters influencing building design, enables us to work with these new design tools fluently - meeting our clients practical needs at the same time as creating beautiful structures expressive of the natural elements they seek to harvest. The practice has more experience of building state of the art green buildings than many claiming expertise in this area - by integrating this approach at the beginning of each project, we are able to offer clients buildings with excellent environmental performance at costs comparable with conventional projects.  http://www.zedfactory.com   |
