Greenery provisions for minimal urban heat island effect  - Window provisions for daylight and cross ventilation, optimized shading at site  - energy and water efficient fixtures  - low VOC paints    ![one-dot](https://greenarc.com.ph/hs-fs/hubfs/icons/one-dot.png?width=1&name=one-dot.png "one-dot") ## Benefits - Gifted with natural shade from trees on the western side, exposure of interior spaces to direct natural sunlight is minimal therefore there is less heat gain in the afternoon. - Gardens are provided at the perimeters and the bigger sized grassy areas are at the east and west. These are cooler areas since no heat islands are present. Thus, the breezes are cooler compared to areas with surfaces of high thermal mass exposed to the sun like concrete. - Natural illumination is sourced from diffused daylight. Use of artificial light during daytime is negligible. - Use of air conditioning is limited to extremely hot and humid periods. - Energy efficient lighting and appliances, as well as water efficient fixtures were specified and installed. - A combination of these results in reduced energy and water demand, and lower electric and water bills. - Solar PV and Solar water heaters were planned for the house which can further reduce electric bills. - Healthier and comfotable indoors – reduced heat & glare, natural light and views, cooler breezes - Reduced electric and water bills [![GreenArc Sustainable Building and Architecture Logo](https://greenarc.com.ph/hs-fs/hubfs/greenarc-logo-2021-v1-standard-bg-w.png?width=291&height=120&name=greenarc-logo-2021-v1-standard-bg-w.png "GreenArc Sustainable Building and Architecture Logo")](https://greenarc.com.ph/?hsLang=en) Sustainable architecture is an investment in the future.
