voluntarily sought and won IGBC ‘Gold’
IGBC Green Homes
Indian Green Building Council (IGBC) Green Homes is a pioneering rating programme developed exclusively for the residential sector. It is based on accepted energy and environmental principles and strikes a balance between established practices and emerging concepts.
IGBC Green Homes® rating system evaluates green features under the following categories:
- Site Selection and Planning
- Water Conservation
- Energy Efficiency
- Materials & Resources
- Indoor Environmental Quality
- Innovation & Design Process
The rating programme uses well-accepted national standards, and where local or national standards are not available, draws upon appropriate international benchmarks.
The threshold criteria for certification levels is as follows:
| Certification Level | Individual Units | Multi-dwelling Units | Recognition |
| Certified | 38 – 44 | 50 – 59 | Best Practices |
| Silver | 45 – 51 | 60 – 69 | Outstanding Performance |
| Gold | 52 – 59 | 70 – 79 | National Excellence |
| Platinum | 60 – 75 | 80 – 100 | Global Leadership |

The IGBC Green Homes® rating system is designed primarily for buildings with 35 or more units (?). That the boutique property Avant Garde One with only nine units has voluntarily sought and won IGBC ‘Gold’ certification is a testament to the abiding commitment to sustainability of its parent company Avant Garde Homes.
