Building and construction industry have a sizable impact on the
environment. In the United States alone, buildings account for 40-49%
energy consumption, 25% water consumption, 70% of total domestic
energy consumption and 38% of total carbon dioxide release. With
building construction and real estate development on the rise,
architects, designers and builders are forced to take on a more
sensitive design approach giving due consideration to the environment.

Understanding these adverse effects of buildings on the environment
and the need for a sustainable design and construction process,
stirred the need within BluEnt's architectural team to make green
architecture techniques and technology more pervasive. So much so that
even small and medium architecture firms would be able to perform at
par with large architecture firms. Revolutionizing green architecture
compliance to the stage that even the lowest rung architecture firms
can adopt these techniques in their architectural design process thus
became the sole purpose of bringing innovation to our offshore
offerings.

"Creating green architecture that can be accessed by any and all
architectural firms around the world, regardless of their size, was
meant to achieve two things," says Sajeel Khanna, Director-
Outsourcing, BluEnt. "We were looking at improving the position of
smaller architectural firms and bring them at par with regards to
expertise and infrastructure involvement. The changing trends require,
at the same time, that green architecture be made a more universal
component in architectural design".
