Answers

1. Limited use of glazing facing west
2. Window shading – including shading over the large entry glazing and shrouds (not perfect for west facing but better than nothing)
3. Climbers for vertical shading to windows
4. Airlock to prevent heat gain/loss through the doorways
5. Native vegetation
6. Water efficient landscaping
7. Recycled bricks
8. Efficient LED lighting
9. Motion sensors on lighting
10. Bicycle parking
11. Expect double glazing / low e glass for heat rejection
