Certified sustainability projects

Project Description

Toscana is a residential project located in Peru, with over 7,337 m² built, developed under an efficiency-focused approach aimed at reducing the environmental impact of multifamily housing. Its design incorporates energy and water-saving criteria aligned with international sustainable construction standards.

Toscana holds EDGE certification (Excellence in Design for Greater Efficiencies), which validates minimum energy, water, and materials savings compared to an equivalent conventional building of the same type and location.

What makes this project innovative?

The innovation of Toscana lies in applying resource-efficiency principles to a residential development of considerable scale, integrating replicable technical solutions for the multifamily segment.

The project stands out for:

• Optimizing energy consumption through efficient equipment, LED fixtures, and passive design strategies.
• Reducing water consumption with low-flow fixtures and sanitary fittings.
• Incorporating construction materials with a lower environmental footprint across their life cycle.
• Demonstrating the feasibility of EDGE certification in residential projects with a large built area.

Project impact

Toscana was designed to meet the minimum thresholds required by EDGE in the energy, water, and materials categories, contributing to reducing the environmental footprint of real estate development in the country.
