  • Avoid recommending specific contractors or products; focus on principles.
  • Ensure recommendations align with local building codes and climate.

Example

  • {{project_type}}: renovation of a 20-year-old office building, {{building_scope}}: 10,000 sq ft, {{sustainable_features}}: insulation, solar panels, green roof, {{budget}}: $500k, {{stakeholders}}: building owner, tenants, facility manager.

Follow-up prompts

  • What certifications should we pursue to validate our green building efforts?
