Sustainability
Citra believes in the simplest yet most powerful definition of sustainability:
Our advanced Citra Building Technology is engineered to use the absolute minimum possible amount of materials and energy. This reduces the environmental footprint throughout the entire lifecycle and will enable future generations to have the same materials available to create the things they desire. And the cost savings of our advanced Citra Building Technology give our clients more choices of what they can do with their money.
Citra homes are designed to last so that the children and grandchildren of our clients have the choice to live in the same home. Or to sell it and reinvest the proceeds to start a new life – just like our clients do when they buy a new Citra home.
In our developments, we aim to create neighborhoods that foster trust amongst all residents and that stimulate enduring economic development. We achieve this by asking a few key questions at every decision that needs to be taken: How can we make it safer? How can we increase positive engagement amongst the neighbors? How can we break down the barriers that prevent economic development? And most importantly: How can we make the homeowners and the neighborhood proud of where they live? Finding honest answers to these questions can be difficult and lead to contradictory answers and design decisions, but by constantly seeking better answers we believe that we can make a difference. This is especially important in affordable developments, as it means the children of our clients will have a better future and be able to live a different life.
