Green
Building
Sustainable development is a growing priority across the built environment. Through structured advisory and certification support, we help developers, asset owners, and project teams integrate environmental sustainability in construction into project planning and delivery. Our approach aligns developments with recognized green building certification frameworks and sustainable construction certifications, supporting improvements in energy efficiency, resource efficiency, and long-term building performance.
OUR GREEN BUILDING CERTIFICATIONS
Hearn & Hearn Consulting supports project teams in achieving leading green building certification and sustainable design certification systems used internationally and across projects in the Philippines. These certifications verify that developments meet established environmental and performance standards across the lifecycle of a building while supporting environmental sustainability in construction.
We provide advisory and certification support for:
LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design)
Developed by the United States Green Building Council, LEED Certification is one of the most widely adopted green building certification systems worldwide. Our team supports projects pursuing LEED certification for developments in the Philippines, guiding clients through sustainability strategy, documentation, and compliance with the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) rating framework.
WELL Building Standard
The WELL Building Standard focuses on human health and wellbeing within the built environment. This certification evaluates building performance across air quality, water quality, lighting, thermal comfort, and occupant wellbeing. We support project teams pursuing WELL certification for projects in the Philippines, integrating health-focused strategies into building design and operational planning.
BERDE (Building for Ecologically Responsive Design Excellence)
BERDE Certification is the Philippines’ national green building rating system, developed by the Philippine Green Building Council. Our consultancy assists developers and project teams in achieving BERDE certification, aligning building design and construction practices with sustainability standards that support environmental sustainability in construction.
EDGE (Excellence in Design for Greater Efficiencies)
Developed by the International Finance Corporation (IFC), EDGE Certification is a performance-based sustainable design certification focused on measurable reductions in energy use, water consumption, and embodied materials. We support projects pursuing EDGE certification for developments in the Philippines, helping teams implement cost-effective sustainability strategies and verify performance improvements during design and construction.
