Abstract

This paper discusses de concept of sustainable development as it should be applied to tall buildings in the city of São Paulo. Initially, there are presented the definitions of sustainable development and the so called sustainable architecture. Next, it is given a few general information on energy consumption in buildings and its materials; environmental issues are discussed for the use of these materials, such as life cycle and environmental impacts. Next, the discussion follows onto the so called “intelligent buildings” and their urban insertion in the city of São Paulo. Finally, a few observations are made on the distance that exists between these intelligent buildings and the practice of sustainable architecture. It is discussed the importance of the right specification of materials and the responsibility of professionals before future generations.
