It takes both creative vision and expertise to design sustainable buildings and COWI have both.
Since COWI's first established itself in the Gulf in the early 1970s, we have been working on green buildings and sustainable design.
Today we are involved more than ever in designing green buildings and we have accumulated a wealth of experience and knowledge at a time when clients are beginning to recognise the financial, social and environmental benefits of sustainable buildings.
Building for the future
It is evident that the Gulf is entering a rapid transformation due to continued growth and investment at the same time the area is suffering from energy and water shortages. It does not make sense to continue building the way we do. We have to think long and hard on how to build wisely for the future. Smart, sustainable buildings are becoming a necessity.
The primary focus for COWI is to assist clients to mitigate the impact of building projects on the environment through energy conscious / socially responsive design and water recycling whilst maintaining the cost and financial benefits to clients. We combine our passion for design and our technical knowledge to provide our clients with pioneering solutions.
Our services include:
- Green building design
- Green building siting and planning
- Life cycle analysis
- LEED and BREEAM certification
- Energy concept planning and design
- Cradle to Cradle consultancy
