Sustainability and construction experts have said that a new approach to traditional architecture designs, intelligent products, climate-tailored building designs, and 3D technology are optimal solutions for tackling the UAE’s cooling bill.
The carbon footprint of the Emirates will be one of the core topics discussed at the upcoming Middle East Façades Summit, taking place on the first day of Windows, Doors and Façades Event, which runs from September 18-20 at the Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC). Scott Coombes, the Summit’s Chair and Director at AESG, a local company specialising in the reduction of the ecological footprint of the built environment, believes that the most effective way of ensuring building sustainability is by combining traditional Islamic and Arabic architecture with innovative tech solutions tailored to UAE’s sub-tropical climate.
