The Green Register
Promoting Sustainable Design
hpa are members of the ‘Green Register of Architectural Practices’.
This training and networking organisation aims to bring together members of the construction industry who are committed to sustainable building practices.
Our belief is that sustainable measures can be introduced in all buildings in order to improve energy efficiency. These measures can be tailored to suit client’s wishes and budget. We can also examine the ‘cost in use’ of energy saving items which may save money in the long run.
Sustainable design can range from how a building is sited (shelter, solar gain etc), to specification of renewable materials through to the introduction of zero carbon technologies (solar panels and wind turbines etc).
