Designing sustainable buildings is in Mecanoo’s DNA. From its founding in 1984, Mecanoo has designed buildings in recognition that sustainability is a social responsibility. Sustainability goes beyond the use of solar collectors, heat pumps and a green roof. Buildings should be carefully integrated into their urban context. Sustainability is also about lasting through time, identity, a rich morphology, materialization and how the space is experienced. The buildings must inspire their users to be socially and ecologically responsible. Sustainable buildings should be flexible enough to change with the times through integrated building design techniques. Our sustainable design team advises on every project so that each encompasses a sustainable and environmentally conscious building practice.
