Abstract

This paper describes a method for the analysis of sustainable building projects. Sustainable technology measures can easily be misinterpreted, consequently leading to unsustainable building solutions. Our research and educations aims at discovering new approaches for sustainable design. For building analysis no principal method exists. Our method for the analysis of sustainable buildings encourages future designers to produce a complete picture of a building. It results in a short description and picture, which is an effective way to communicate the sustainable qualities of a building. In sustainable building design research ‘tools’ to inspire architects in a conceptual stage deserve more attention.
