    A heat recovery and energy efficient ventilation system has been used
    The lighting and HVAC system are designed to be managed by automation
    The energy and solar controlled facade design has been provided for the necessary technical analyzes to be carried out

 

Water Efficiency

Water usage, which is one of the most important operating costs in commercial interiors, water usage in the building has been reduced by 46% and water usage in landscape areas has been reduced by 50%, thus significant savings have been achieved in the operating costs of the office.
