Efforts infiltration green bags on the roofs of buildings and structures are commonly known as roof gardens, green space or roof garden roof.

The existence of roof garden will add economic value for residential buildings which are equipped with a roof garden would feel more comfortable and visually beautiful. Benefits roof garden especially extensive in improving air quality and enhance environmental quality including:

Absorption of heat in the building is reduced by 10%. This means you can economize up to 60% of energy consumption used to cool the air. Temperatures in space can come down at least 1-2 celcius degrees, depending on the area of the roof garden.

The existence of the forage, especially the plants with leaf surface rough or jagged edges, especially potent to reduce noise for residents in the building.

In Indonesia, access to [...]]]> The concept of green building or green building trend driven into the world of property development today. This environmentally friendly building has put a halt to the contribution of global warming with the correct micro climate.

The biggest point in this concept is saving water and energy and use renewable energy. In Indonesia, access to renewable energy is still weak. Electrical energy supply to the property only rely on electricity company which are not yet using renewable energy sources.

In the United States, a variety of electric energy supplier companies with a variety of fuel options, including renewable fuels. Developers who choose electric energy from renewable sources will have the biggest points in the green building concept.

The managers of the building as a large energy users now have the responsibility to reduce global warming in ways that save energy, water, fuel, and so on. Activities facilitated panel discussion of PT Colliers International Indonesia and PT Cisco Systems Indonesia is at once to introduce the reference through the concept of green building Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED).

The application of the concept of LEED is essentially a recognition of his efforts to provide environmentally-friendly property works or who hold the concept of green building.

85 introduces the concept of LEED rating points with a certified rating, silver, gold, and platinum.

Efficiency

The implementation of LEED for property development also requires absolutely some things, such as water use efficiency, use of minimum energy, or efforts to protect the ozone layer. Some countries, like India, China, Dubai, and Vietnam, also had quite a lot of applying LEED concepts. LEED certification was originally formulated Green Building Council United States.

Understanding of this architecture. Green building measures open up opportunities to put the building in a wider network, related aspects of climate, natural resources, social, and cultural. Education plays an important role in the understanding of sustainability.

The main issues related to environmentally friendly buildings, among which are necessary to build only and do not use more than necessary, the principle of relevance, as well as looking at professional architects as a caretaker of the earth.

Design strategies that can be applied, among others, the use of sustainable materials, linkages with the local ecology, the relationship between transit and residence, recreation and work, as well as water use efficiency, waste management, and highlight local conditions both physically and socially.

General [...]]]> The use of green building or buildings with environmentally friendly concept was increasingly in demand. The results of a global survey conducted property consultants Jones Lang LaSalle and CoreNet in 2008 and then show, Tenant’s interest in Asia Pacific to use green building growing along with the increasing awareness of environmental issues and sustainability issues.

General interest companies in Asia Pacific to use green building as place of work rising from year to year.

Then at the end of 2008 at the time the survey was conducted the number increased sharply to 76 percent. When asked what factors the primary consideration for companies locating their offices, 75 percent answered is related to energy costs, while 82 is the Green Building.

Especially in the era of the global crisis like now, many companies are under pressure to reduce costs quickly. Many are beginning to realize that the proper energy planning can be one of the efforts of their operational costs.

In Indonesia, there are a number of office buildings that have implemented the concept of green building, although not yet integrated the technology.

So far, the buildings in Jakarta new limited anticipation of building plans but have not really integrated with the building technology itself. So that was built by a developer is only building with environmentally friendly design, rather than building a truly environmentally friendly
