Sustainability in the project
- BREEAM certifications one of the most important systems for ranking the environmental impact of a building. While it is most commonly awarded to newly constructed buildings, the extent of the reconstruction performed was such that criteria for measurement were adapted for the purpose of certifying Sava Center. A special and entirely individual analysis was created and conducted. It can be said that during the reconstruction of Sava Center, entirely new certification parameters of this type of building were established.
