Sustainability

“The delivery of a holistic sustainable design sits at the centre of the BDP design philosophy.”
Steve Merridew, head of sustainability

Our sustainability team has delivered low-carbon, sustainable and efficient buildings for more than 100 clients globally.

True sustainability lies in meeting the 'triple bottom line' of environmental, social and economic considerations; we help clients meet these aims without incurring higher capital costs through:

• our ‘measure, minimise, mitigate’ methodology
• expertise in entire cycles from procurement to delivery
• thought leadership — we are helping compile global BREEAM standards and are members of a Greater London Authority (GLA) advisory body

We work as part of integrated BDP teams as well as with external architects and developers. As part of our services we provide ecological surveys and advice.

We have won numerous accolades including Sustainable Designer/Consultant of the Year in the 2008 Sustainable Building Awards.
