How to build a sustainable house in the Czech Republic?

How to build a sustainable house in the Czech Republic?

Since more than a decade sustainable construction in the Czech Republic became more mainstream. Sustainability is a big topic in the construction industry, partly driven by more strict regulations, partly by interest of investors. The variety of the market for sustainable building options is large, and orientation isn't easy.

During the workshop you will learn about the principles of sustainable construction, how to apply them to your project and how to realize them in the Czech market. We will discuss options in construction methods, building material, conscient material use, health, energy conservation and generation, space lay out planning, orientation, regulations, changes expected in regulations short and long term, possible subsidies,...

There are many different understandings and opinions of sustainable architecture, and different motivations to opt for a more sustainable house. This workshop is unique in its content as it covers different levels and options, and provides neutral advice, in order to empower you to make more sound decisions. This means this workshop caters for the needs of different types of interest in sustainable construction, if it’s about practical reasons to reduce energy costs, to reduce the climate impact of your construction plans, if you’re interested in natural building etc. Specific interests can be discussed as well during the practical part.

During the practical part you will validate your new knowledge, create list of important points to you, so you are prepared for the next steps and are better aware of what the pitfalls are.

This workshop is for anyone who considers to build a house, or a renovation, in the Czech Republic, and is interested in applying a more sustainable approach.
