A structure built to be environmentally responsible by conserving resources, utilizing internal recycling, renewable energy sources, recyclable or biodegradable construction materials, and fitting in with the surrounding environment, particularly in outlying areas. In our role as a Green Building consultancy in Dubai, we know a sustainable building, also known as a green building, is the result of a design philosophy that focuses on increasing resource efficiency — energy, water, and materials — while reducing building impacts on human health and the environment throughout the building's lifecycle through better siting, design, construction, operation, maintenance, and removal. The goals are to minimize the environmental effect while also considering human health.
