Description
Summary:[...]the use of such technologies is often left to the discretion of designers who, with great effort and surplus labour, manage to create works of their own responsibility, applying regulations from other contexts or based on empirical evidence. [...]the contribution of research centers, universities and associations appears to be decisive in the development of specific technical standards oriented towards materials that are not well established in the building market, such as biogenic materials or those derived from agricultural waste. Promoting the dissemination of regulations and standards to enhance the architectural and environmental quality of construction is the objective of voluntary standards such as green building rating systems. Compliance with the energy and environmental standards defined by the GBC certification protocols enabled the project, also subject to the constraints of the Superintendency, to reach the Gold level of certification and win the "Leadership in Design and Performance" award during the GBC Italia Awards in 2022. Compliance with the energy and environmental standards defined in the GBC certification protocols allowed the project, also subject to the constraints of the heritage protection public body, to reach the Gold level of certification and to win the "Leadership in Design and Performance" award at the GBC Italia Awards in 2022.
