That methodology is applied to a sample of 64 office buildings and 96 apartment buildings. Two sets of buildings have been determined : best buildings and unacceptable ones in terms of comfort, health, energy saving. The significant differences are presented. It appears possible to design healthy, comfortable and energy efficient buildings.
