Abstract
The building process is configured as an arranged sequence of steps, from the needs detection of clients/users for their satisfaction, to design, realization and management of human made capital. The level of performance of the object to the requirements defines the degree of quality that distinguishes it. Assessing, through the Protocol ITACA, the building performance during different phases of production and utilization, means to have a tool directing the design solutions to the environmental friendly behavior approach, and valuating weaknesses and potentiality, without losing the global effect of choices. This contribute illustrates the potentiality of the Protocol ITACA that must be not only an assessment tool finalized to control ex-post the energy-environmental performance of buildings, but also a method for designing innovative and efficient architecture and making appropriate decisions. Only when this happens, will it be really possible to change the design way.
