Westfield London adds a spectacular new landmark to the capital's skyline.
Sustainability
Naturally, you'd expect us to have made sustainability a priority, and every aspect of the design has been scrutinised to ensure our impact on the environment is reduced. Since the original plans were approved, we have achieved a 24% reduction in carbon dioxide emissions and incorporated even higher standards of energy efficiency.
A third of the roof is carpeted in a green, bio-diverse material offering natural insulation and an eco-friendly habitat to flora and fauna, while all timber has been selected from auditable sustainable resources. We've even included 50% recycled material (where appropriate).
Water efficiency is also paramount and all fittings have been selected to use as little as possible. Rainwater harvesting has been incorporated into the design, as have facilities for waste separation and recycling.
