Abstract

This study presents a comprehensive case study on the design and construction of a sustainable building in Henan Province, China, demonstrating the application of innovative sustainable practices tailored to local environmental, economic, and cultural contexts. The project integrates energy-efficient materials, renewable energy sources, and sustainable water and waste management systems, illustrating their effectiveness in reducing the environmental impact of construction while enhancing operational efficiency and occupant comfort. By addressing the challenges of higher upfront costs, regulatory constraints, and the need for specialized labour, the study provides valuable insights and actionable recommendations for scaling sustainable practices in the building sector. The findings underscore the importance of a holistic approach to sustainable construction, emphasizing the benefits of local adaptation of building practices and the potential for replicable models in similar urban settings. This case study serves as a vital resource for policymakers, builders, and designers seeking to advance sustainability in the construction industry.
