This eco construction adopted some sustainable design concepts. The position of the building in the north/south axis will provide good passive design concept. Cross ventilation can be maximized, supported by tall ceilings and operable skylight. Materials were chosen from natural sources and finishings were chosen from non-toxic, no VOC materials. There is also heat recovery ventilation system also which may provide very high SEER. Recycle process was also done to recycle 75% of construction waste.
