Delivering Sustainable Exemplars
The same core team from architects, FCB Studios and environmental engineers, Max Fordham worked together over a decade, developing a series of sustainable exemplar buildings. These were all realised via the careful setting of sustainable design briefs, clever design solutions and post-occupancy monitoring to evaluate what worked and what did not. Over this 10-year period, key themes evolved such as use of daylight and artificial lighting, natural ventilation and thermal mass, IT and building controls. The team explored these themes over the course of this relationship, using each previous building to provide feedback that could be used in the design of the next. This chapter provides an introduction to each project and the key lessons learnt across the entire series of buildings. In summary, it aims to highlight some key strategies to deliver a sustainable exemplar building.
