Abstract:

Thesis (M.Arch.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture, 2002.<br>Includes bibliographical references (p. 87-88).<br>What constitutes sustainable architecture? Clearly, this is a question very much in vogue nowadays, and contemporary responses have been framed for the most part by topics such as new building technologies, energy conservation, climatically and environmentally responsive design, recyclable materials, and so on. Though sustainable architecture must certainly be about many, if not all of these things, my thesis proposes a much more familiar architectural res

Abstract:

The purpose of this thesis is to examine the role of sustainable development in Landscape Architecture. From reviewing the literature, a position is developed. The position is that Sustainable Development is an important issue for landscape architects and that there are reasons landscape architects have had limited success in sustainable development. The method of the thesis is derived from assessing a problem of sustainable development and landscape architecture and developing a solution to this problem. The solution is a procedure, not a tool, that landscape architects can use to learn ab

Abstract:

Architectural sustainability is ambiguous. The contemporary understanding of sustainability is often debated on the basis of environmental and humanitarian focus. This focus often brings ambiguity when the concept of sustainability is promoted as an end product and not as a perpetual process. For ecologically harmonious and sustainable human survival, sustainable methods and processes are believed to encourage reworking the course of human development.The Component-based design approach is a promising and appropriate method for achieving sustainability. The method involves systems thinking and

<p> Humankind’s relationship with water began before our inception. Our very existence and evolution depended on it, as all life on our blue planet does.

Riverfronts became dominated by railroads and industry severing access to the water in our urban environments. In Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania the neighborhood of Manchester experienced further separation when the neighborhood was divided in two by a raised, walled highway and the industrial riverfront was re

This thesis demonstrates how architectural design can be used to help alleviate the current environmental crisis, using a radical sustainable approach that integrates high density living and farming activities within the context of suburban planning. In South Africa, population growth and urbanisation have led to low-rise low-density buildings invading . bio diversity nodes, valuable arable land, and natural reserves on the periphery of cities. Not only are the infrastructural costs of servicing these low-density suburbs very high, but the pollution caused by daily commuting to and from the wo

Abstract:

The environmental impact of human behaviour on the design, construction and operation of buildings is often overlooked, frequently resulting in sub optimal performance over the lifecycle of the building (credibility gap and value-action gap). An over-reliance on technological and market solutions (false positivity) throughout the design, construction and operation of sustainable buildings means changing user behaviour is not currently envisaged by all but the most sustainability-minded built environment professionals.

City beautification was the fundamental purpose of urban design at the time it was introduced as a separate profession. Over time, the scope and objectives of urban design have changed.

Therefore, today, urban design seeks to enhance the life of the city and its inhabitants in socio-economic and environmental terms. Even though urban design has a wider scope for achieving su
