About this Collection

Created in 1990, the Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method (BREEAM) has come to be identified as one of the world’s most comprehensive and recognized means for measuring building environmental performance.

BREEAM gauges performance and evaluates building specifications. These measurements represent a variety of categories and criteria, including aspects related to energy and water use, ecology, materials and waste.

Every building that receives BREEAM certification is considered for the BREEAM Award. This distinction annually recognizes buildings that excel in every category while representing an ideal example of projects that have been assessed and certified in the past year.
