Description
With increasing scrutiny on buildings' sustainability performance and a rapid rise in demand for green buildings, building designers can no longer afford to ignore their impact on the environment and society. Clients, investors and regulators across the globe are increasingly demanding green buildings, however, there are so many different and contrasting approaches to Sustainable Architecture & Building Design that it is difficult to understand where to begin. I strongly believe, if building designers are given the right tools, they can decide which of the various sustainable design approaches are right for their project.

This course provides the foundations for understanding the key approaches to sustainable building design and allows architects to avoid paying expensive consultancy fees while increasing their market appeal.This course is split into 6 main sections, that is based on the standard Building Plan of Work:Introduction: Understanding what Sustainable Architecture and Building Design is and why it is vital to start adopting it. Pre-Design: Investigating the importance of Green Building Certifications, Community Engagement and Lifecycle Assessments (LCAs) and how your project can benefit from them before starting design. Design: Exploring Net Zero Carbon, Circular and Biophilic design approaches and how to implement in your project successfully. In-Use: Exploring Passive, Active and Water Conservation design approaches and how to implement in your project successfully.

End of Life: Exploring Design for Reuse, Durability, Adaptability and Deconstruction design approaches and how to implement in your project successfully. Industry Case Studies: Consolidating the knowledge from the first 5 modules and looking at how Sustainable Building Design is implemented in industry with an interview with Managing Director of JKT Architecture. This course will prepare everyone from architectural students, looking to secure a job in the hugely growing green building market; sustainability and ESG professionals just starting out a career in the built environment and those who are managing their own home design and construction. By the end of this course, you will have a solid understand of why Sustainable Architecture and Building Design is so important and how to begin incorporating the principles in your own projects. This course will provide you with a how-to guide on what you need to know, and how you can implement this knowledge successfully. In 2 hours, this course will accelerate your career and give you the cutting edge in one of the fastest-growing fields globally.
