Performative Ecologies in the Built Environment | Sustainable Research across Disciplines
It is becoming clear that sustainability design research should not proceed through narrow disciplinary enterprises. Sustainability practice needs to extend beyond traditional divisions between human beings and the milieu; architectural design and building science; internal and external environments; structure and form; virtual and actual and; the academic and practical. Such performance-based design research relies upon a dynamic and versatile attitude to the relationship between architecture, its users and its environment, towards a notion of ecologies.
