Green University

My project is about designing a green university, green universities are educational institutions that satisfy their natural resources requirements – for example electricity, water and materials without undermining people's capacity to meet their own needs or the future generations.

The reason I chose to design a green university is because sustainability is a concept that I have been interested in for so many years, I have a lot of knowledge about designing sustainable buildings and I chose a university in specific because there are no sustainable universities in Bahrain.

The selected building is the Gulf University campus, it is a private university located in Sanad, Bahrain. It was established on 17 September 2001 and is licensed by the Bahraini Ministry of Education. My project is going to be about designing the gulf university, and my focus will be on respecting the green nature in the location plus make a good use of it and add more technology to provide the most comfort for the useres and have a great after life of the furniture and the ussable items in the space.
