Sustainable architecture









Sustainable architecture is designing buildings keeping in mind environmental goals and sustainable development. The terms green architecture or green buildings are often used interchangeably with sustainable architecture to promote this definition further. In a broader sense and taking into account the pressing economic and political issues, sustainable architecture seeks to reduce the negative environmental impact of the buildings by increasing efficiency and moderation in the utilization of building materials, energy and development space. Similarly, green architecture denotes economical, energy-saving, environmentally-friendly, sustainable development and explores the relationship between architecture and ecology.

WATER BUILDING RESORT, is a sustainable building of postmodern generation (HITECH), it was designed architecturally and inspired by the form of a DROP OF WATER when falling from the heights. It is a sustainable building, projected and thought to create conscience of the water.
WATER BUILDING RESORT not contributed alone the knowledge and culture to the coming generations, if not also financial profitability for their promoters and investors.











Designed by Orlando de Urrutia in the shape of a giant water drop, Water Building Resort is a hotel, a spa, a conference centre, an underwater aquarium — but, above all, will be the first building to convert air into water: in fact its south photovoltaic façade will power an equipment on the north façade which will convert condensation and humid air into potable water. This will be possible thanks to a brand newTeex Micron technology.

The bottom floor will house a sea and rain water treatment plant and a Cidemco centre for the technological investigation on water quality.
