20 Ropemaker Street has been awarded a BREEAM New Construction 2018 ‘Outstanding’ rating at the design stage, which recognises a high standard of sustainability and wellbeing for exemplary developments.
It is thought to be the largest-ever BREEAM 2018 commercial project to secure this accreditation rating at the design stage.
Make Architects worked with engineer and sustainability lead, Hilson Moran and main contractor, Skanska to achieve 86% in the new 2018 rating system, which covers ten sections of sustainable practices for buildings: Water, Materials, Waste, Land Use/Ecology, Energy, Pollution, Health and Wellbeing, Innovation, Management, and Transport. Ropemaker secured maximum credits in the latter two sections and wellbeing played a major part in the focus of the accreditation to ensure the building would be a healthy and attractive place to work in the long term.
