Understanding the system and then looking for viable market driven, consumer demand alternative is how we can start radically changing the sustainability agenda.

Farthest from my mind is the thought of falling back on sustainable goals. In fact, it isn't there at all. So I dig my feet carefully and deep, and wait for the first sight of opportunity. Every wall is a door.

Sust. design & practices should be borne out of individual project req. & integrated frm the offset as part of research to inform design.

Design power of synthesis is trying to make more efficient use of the most scarcest resource in cities which is not money but co-ordination.

I believe that sustainable design and practices should not be developed as a check point criteria to satisfy green building tools and developers but rather be borne out of individual project requirements and integrated from the offset as part of research to inform our design.

Integrated building design is a cornerstone for developing sustainable buildings, which are efficiently combined systems of coordinated and environmentally sound products, systems, and design elements.

Pre-design stage is the first step in the building process, incorporating green building practices into the project at this juncture is critical. Decisions made during predesign not only set the project direction, but also must prove cost-effective over the life of the project.

A team approach assures the development and implementation of an integrated building design. The team can comprise a wide variety of members. Rather than working in isolation in their own areas of expertise, team members shall use a multidisciplinary approach in which the interrelated impacts of design, systems, and materials are recognized. Part of this process may involve education of team members to recognize the benefits of environmentally sound design or materials and to look beyond their own disciplines to conceptualize the integrated systems.

With the correct design synthesis... Sustainability is nothing more than a rigorous application of common sense...
