BuildingPhysics

BuildingPhysics is a professional practice focused on improving the profitability, comfort and safety of the built environment.

What is a Green Building? A common misconception is that a green building has to look radically different from other buildings, but in reality there needn't be any aesthetic differences at all. A green building is any building that makes efficient use of energy and water, with minimal negative impact on the environment (if not a positive one).

This has to be true for the entire life cycle of the building, from the design and construction phase, right through operation and until long after the building is gone and forgotten. Remember though, the top priority of any building is to keep its occupants comfortable and productive, and this is especially true for a green building, where the pressure to save energy can lead to uncomfortable spaces.

How can we help you? Every building and its environment is unique and requires its own set of solutions. We will form an active part of your design process, helping you to quantify the impacts of design decisions and use those results to develop new and original ideas (if they are required).

Building and energy modeling lacks glamour - it requires tenacity, persistence and an extraordinary amount of number crunching - and that’s where we make the difference. BuildingPhysics do the work for you, and free you up to concentrate on the big picture. Through careful evaluation and analysis will give you the freedom to explore concepts that would otherwise have been scrapped due to the uncertainty of their effect on the building's performance.
