Buildings & Masterplanning

At Masterplan level, Sustainable Development means developing a design that maximises the inherent benefits of a site, whilst minimising any adverse and future impacts. This should be achieved at all levels - social, economic and environmental. In this respect, sustainability should not be viewed as an 'add-on' but as an integrated part of the process. Keeping this foremost and to ensure that sustainable development principles are incorporated from the start, ZEF takes a holistic approach to ensure that a good master plan is achieved.
