For GKC, every dollar invested must make a real contribution to bringing about the desired improvements to your facilities and improving your efficiency.
The energy efficiency of buildings is crucial, as it contributes to reduced running costs, improved comfort and durability. To improve energy efficiency, we use a wide range of techniques, including bioclimatic design, the use of high-performance insulating materials and renewable energies, as well as the reduction of thermal bridges.
Water management is a growing concern, particularly for municipalities. A number of strategies can be put in place to reduce the impact of buildings on local infrastructure, including the use of drainage ditches, retention basins and water recovery or treatment systems.
Land use is inextricably linked to the ecological footprint. The more we limit it, the more we preserve the natural ecosystems of the places where we settle. Optimising land use is one way of contributing to balanced, sustainable urban development.
Bioclimatic design, i.e. designing buildings to suit the local climate, is an integral part of our practice. By positioning the building according to the path of the sun and the winds, for example, we are able to reduce energy consumption and increase occupant comfort.
As biophilic design enthusiasts, we aim to introduce elements and motifs of nature into living spaces - plants, noble materials, natural ventilation and so on - to promote the well-being and mental health of occupants.
Constructing buildings that are environmentally friendly and healthy for their occupants requires a judicious choice of materials. Sustainable materials reduce the carbon footprint of buildings, extend their lifespan and minimize waste production. Ecological materials improve indoor air quality and help conserve natural resources.
Our team is able to support and coordinate the efforts of companies wishing to obtain environmental certifications such as LEED and Carbon Neutral, which attest to compliance with the most relevant sustainability criteria.
