What is Building Biology
Building biology researches the impact of the building environment on human health, and applies this knowledge to the construction, or modification, of homes and workplaces and the holistic interaction between human life with our environment.
Building biology describes the use of healthy building principles as a means to improve living and work spaces and the health of people who occupy them while having a low impact on the environment.
There are 25 principles in Building Biology that have to be considered, comprised from ecological, biological, spiritual, aesthetic, social and community principles. A list can be found on the New Zealand BBE website.Further Information
