BIOCLIMATIC ARCHITECTURE

It comprises analyzing the project´s natural surroundings and the climatic conditions to generate indoor space comfort, achieve a better thermal sensation, improve lightning and ventilation and thus reduce energy consumption and carbon footprint.

BIOCLIMATIC ARCHITECTURE

Benefits of Cardinal´s Bioclimatic Design

Environmental benefits

Use of natural resources of energy

Exploit the winds and currents through the chimney effect: which controls the airflow caused by thermal differences by exploiting the natural principle of rising hot air.

And enjoying natural and crossed ventilation to provide for the channeling of micro-streams of hot and cold air inside the building.

Design of solar protection architectural elements
Thermal insulation system to delay the entry of heat from outside to inside, and maintain the internal temperature inside the comfort zone
Best villas´orientation to avoid overheating, to take advantage of natural lighting while restricting direct exposure
Reduction of water waste
Reduction of CO2 tons emission

Social benefits

More outstanding quality of life for people through solutions with low environmental impact.
Creating more comfortable interior spaces for residents, which significantly increases well-being and productivity.

Economic benefits

Energy consumption reduction
Reduction of families´energy bills and the CO2 pollution produced by heating, lighting, and air conditioning.

25% higher rents and 10% higher prices for EDGE certificated buildings

40% energy saving on A/C for bioclimatic houses.

Cardinal reduces your carbon footprint by 50% of CO2 tons per year compared to other developments in the area.

25% higher rents and 10% higher prices for EDGE certificated buildings

40% energy saving on A/C for bioclimatic houses.

Cardinal reduces your carbon footprint by 50% of CO2 tons per year compared to other developments in the area.

This is the new trend to living in harmony with the neighborhood and the environment by joining a community that shares the same beliefs, and designing an energy-efficient architecture by using a smaller carbon footprint.
