City of Dreams Mediterranean

Environmental and BREEAM coordination for one of Europe’s largest integrated resort developments.
City of Dreams Mediterranean has been achieved a score of 72.3%, the IR is Cyprus’ first development to achieve a BREEAM Excellent rating. The accolade recognises City of Dreams Mediterranean’s incorporation of the highest design sustainability standards and integration into the natural environmental surroundings. BREEAM is the world’s leading sustainability assessment method for master planning projects, infrastructure and buildings. It rates an asset’s environmental, social and economic sustainability performance.
Set to become Cyprus’ first IR and the largest in Europe, City of Dreams Mediterranean is built in accordance with the highest sustainability standards, from materials used, its high-tech water reuse system to the energy-saving optimisation of the building’s orientation and shading. The project design is inspired by the native Cypriot landscape, while the retail promenade bears resemblance to the enchanting old town area of Nicosia. Native plant species mirror the character of the environment and support the landscape’s ecology. To incorporate the IR into its surrounding landscape, it will encompass over 130,000 newly planted trees and indigenous plants, creating a holiday oasis for guests and reducing carbon emissions.
