The construction sector and architectural practices now implement sustainability in ever more diverse ways, from the use of sustainable building materials to the construction of technically 'intelligent' buildings that use energy and raw materials sparingly and efficiently. This book argues that a handle must be gained on all the factors that have a positive influence on sustainability during the initial phase, when the public tender is defined.
The book briefly explains what the 'milieu-index' (environment index) is, and how it can be applied. However, the focus is on how decisions concerning sustainable housing can be effected and put into practice, and how the various parties involved - the (institutional) client, the project developer and the real estate sector - can manage and influence this process. The book also includes interviews with inspirational project developers, presents a selection of exemplary projects, and lists a wealth of relevant information sources, including addresses and websites.
