What is the minimum size requirement for LEED ID+C projects?

  1. 150 square feet

  2. 250 square feet

  3. 500 square feet

  4. 1000 square feet

The correct answer is: 250 square feet

The minimum size requirement for LEED Interior Design and Construction (ID+C) projects is 250 square feet. This specification ensures that the project is large enough to make a meaningful impact on energy efficiency, water conservation, and overall sustainability. A project of this size allows for a comprehensive evaluation of the building’s systems and materials, facilitating the implementation of sustainable practices. While there are other options, they either fall short of this threshold or exceed it. The stated minimum of 250 square feet serves as a standard benchmark for assessing projects seeking LEED certification in the ID+C category, promoting effective design choices and resource management within the defined space. Smaller projects may not have enough scope to incorporate a full suite of sustainable strategies, which is why the 250 square foot minimum is vital to the LEED certification process.
