To be honest, the planet does not need anything from us, the human beings. But we require the planet and its resources to be able to live. For Edificaciones Corbán a sustainable architecture company, the topic of sustainability and respect for the environment is not about fashion. It is a matter of being sustainable architects, responsibility, and commitment to do well the tropical projects in which we participate in the design and construction of architecture as green designers for the benefit of nature, economy, and society.
The first thing to keep in mind is that there are several quality certifications for sustainable buildings with nature and in different categories .
Some of the best known are PASSIVHAUS, which seeks to build a building with passive techniques. That is, to take advantage of natural resources such as the direction of the wind, the orientation of natural lighting and others that allow eco-friendly design architecture with the minimum energy consumption to achieve the comfort interior building. You can also opt for LEED certification, which with its measurement parameters seeks to save money, improve energy efficiency and create healthy spaces for people by lowering carbon production. BREEAM is another certification which encourages contributing to the most sustainable and responsible design, construction, and maintenance with nature during the life cycle of the building, allowing access to economic and social benefits with the context. The tools of the methodology for the VERDE (Green) certification to show compliance with the quality of life of People, Prosperity in local development. Protection of the Planet in the context, Peace that seeks balance and the Pact to comply with all and for all. It must be borne in mind that there are many other standards or certifications, which, for the most part, share the essence of their objectives, which is to reduce and generate a positive impact on Nature, the Economy, and Society.
One of our favorites as sustainable architects in modern natural design is RESET (Requirements for Sustainable Buildings in the Tropics) is a national regulation of Costa Rica to designate buildings as sustainable in the tropical zones for design and construction. It has many similarities with the other standards mentioned above, in addition to having the premise of being thinking for the context of tropical areas such as Costa Rica, resulting in architecture tropical design.
What do we consider designing your sustainable home, lodge, hotel or commercial project?
1. Comfort in each space with custom green architecture.
Based mainly on the RESET standard, Spatial Quality and Well-being must be taken into account for modern natural houses, hotels and commercial projects. Green architects use passive strategies in tropical design to provide thermal comfort, good air circulation and the use of natural lighting is achieved in the interior green architecture tropical design, where sustainable habits in relation to nature are allowed.
2. How does sustainable architectural projects are integrated with the context?
Well, that's why we as a tropical studio designed it with the Environment and Transport in mind, which are close to your project. The architects propose the integration of the building's tropical architecture design with the surrounding culture, physical and natural conditions present must be studied. In such a way that it facilitates access to existing infrastructure and respects the resources present in the context for its sustainable integration in a clean and efficient manner.
3. Sustainable tropical architecture for all.
Your project will have an impact, we are committed as a sustainable architecture studio to generate that positive impact not only with nature, but also in Socioeconomic Aspects. Many times, the communities near the project and the workers are not given access to fair treatment or end up being removed from the project altogether. We will be locally sustainable by the workers have fair treatment with social inclusion and security that protects their comprehensive well-being. The responsibility for this aspect is joint, both the team of professionals sustainable architects and the client. The correct administration and management of construction in socioeconomic aspects benefits us all.
4. Sustainable and functional design and construction that beautify the landscape.
Soils and Landscaping are analyzed by the architects, so the conditions of the existing biodiversity are taken into account to design adapting the building to the terrain, conserving the existing vegetation that is relevant and generating sustainable landscapes design with native species that compensates the natural habitat where the tropical project will be located, promoting conservation and development.
5. If you can measure it, it can be a sustainable material.
In natural modern architecture design, environmentally friendly Materials are selected and in construction, those are used correctly. It is important to note that reused existing materials have a great positive impact on nature, many of which add great aesthetic value to green architecture projects. Also architects eco-friendly, can have a low environmental impact if an efficient green design is applied with local sustainable materials. However, with tropical architecture, imported materials are also sustainable, have a greater impact, but can be used responsibly with the correct parameters.
6. Sustainable architecture buildings consume efficiently and treat correctly.
Green house designer seek Optimization in the use of water and Optimization of energy, efficiently in the consumption of these resources. In the case of water, the design not only considers consumption, but also seeks to properly treat sewage and residual water.
In terms of energy consumption, it is the most relevant section due to the impact it can generate. Sustainable architects seek to work with energy from renewable sources, and it is possible to reduce consumption, designing properly. Another way eco-friendly tropical designers reduce energy consumption is by taking advantage of the location of the project by orienting it to naturally light from the sun during the day. Also with responsible consumption, that is, proposing and installing efficient equipment in the project.
The previous green points are shared between the different regulations mentioned at the beginning. But we decided to exemplify how a building with sustainable architecture can be obtained in Costa Rica we based on the RESET, as it is suitable for tropical buildings' architecture.
Win-win with sustainable architecture firm in Costa Rica for tropical design.
We will always approach your modern natural architecture projects responsibly, taking advantage of all the technical knowledge and experience we have to design and build sustainable architecture projects in Costa Rica.
It is important that you know that you too will benefit from these natural architecture design projects designed by a sustainable company. Firstly, you have access to a highly attractive and comfortable building for its users and, you will also increase the value of your property. If you build your green hotel or tropical commercial building, your tenants will be willing to pay more for the positive contributions to nature, the quality of space that can be achieved and the aesthetics that will become attractive to visitors. On the other hand, if sustainable house designer build your home, it not only increases its value, but it will also symbolize a know of energy consumption, water consumption and reduction in maintenance costs.
