Sustainability

The environmental damage caused by the consumption of fuels and natural resources in order to generate energy and materials for use has reached a level of global concern in the last number of decades, having knock-on effects into economic and social development. This has resulted in the progressive establishment of a growing global sustainability consciousness within society.

Here at C+W O’Brien Architects, we integrate best practice sustainable design standards into the entirety of our projects life cycles. These standards come from the three pillars of sustainability:

  • Economic Sustainability
  • Social Sustainability
  • Environmental Sustainability

As designers and industry professionals, it is our responsibility to promote these pillars as central considerations for all of our clients and design teams. Through close collaboration throughout our projects, effective and evolving strategies can be established appropriate to each individual development. At C+W O’Brien Architects, we believe no project should impose unacceptable burdens on local eco-systems, we strive to deliver projects that promote human well-being and environmental performance.
