The sustainable design strategy for Gnarabup resort was formed in coalition with Westin Marriott’s’ commitment to global sustainability leadership, explained further in their Source 360 documentation. The intent is proposed keeping in mind local and international best practise benchmarking systems such as NABERS and Greenstar. The intent to Conserve, Protect, Restore, and Engage has been realised through the inclusion of several design parameters such as Greenhouse gas management, exemplar passive solar design, environmental footprint minimalization, restoration and revegetation of previous bushfire affected areas and the like.
