SUSTAINABILITY

Omega strives to create buildings that are sustainable in design and use. The principles of Ecologically Sustainable Design are integral to our design approach and our buildings are designed to use energy and materials to minimise harm to the environment which being healthy and comfortable to use.

With increasing concerns about the environment, we recognise the pivotal role we have as designers to strive towards "carbon neutral" buildings to help mitigate future climate change.

We realise that all projects require varying levels of sustainability and we work in collaboration with our clients and consultants to determine with features present the greatest value for money for each assignment.
