Green Building
Targeting LEED® Platinum — the world’s most rigorous green building standard.
GreenSpaces will be a USGBC-certified Platinum rated green building and one of the most energy-efficient commercial buildings in the world — reducing building energy consumption from 40% to 10% of typical grid usage.
Four attributes of Green Building design — increased ventilation control, increased temperature control, increased lighting control, and increased daylighting — have been positively and significantly correlated with increased productivity and reduced employee turnover across multiple studies.
Built to LEED® Platinum standards from the ground up.
Our award-winning engineers designed GreenSpaces adhering to the rigorous parameters of the LEED® Platinum rating. Every element of the building was considered:
- Building orientation & landscape
- Emphasis on natural light
- Indoor air quality
- Energy conservation & alternative energy
- Selection of building materials
- Sewage treatment & water recycling
- Rainwater harvesting
Benefits for Occupants
- Healthier workplaces Green buildings reduce stress and create more enjoyable working environments for knowledge workers and multidisciplinary teams.
- Better lighting More daylighting, better daylight harvesting, occupancy-controlled light levels, and reduced glare.
- Thermal comfort Improved ventilation, heating, and air conditioning performance compared to conventional buildings.
- Clean Air by Design LEED-certified buildings use low-emitting adhesives, sealants, paints, carpets, and composite woods with indoor pollutant source control.
- Talent retention The quality of the physical and environmental workplace directly influences the ability to attract and retain top employees.
- Lower operating costs Green building design reduces operating costs by 25–30%.
- Corporate responsibility A positive public image through a verifiable commitment to healthy, environmentally responsible buildings.
