A Brief History of Sustainable Building Design

by | Apr 13, 2020

Although our current state of affairs requires terms such as sustainable, green and environmentally conscious design when it comes to just about everything from kitchen sinks to city planning, it’s really all about post industrial concerns that causes us to evoke a need for categorically establishing such overarching themes that address our own faulty behavior in product and consumer development. Architecture follows suite in establishing considerable new programs both on private and public levels to attempt to address and correct these faults of the human condition. I put this presentation together in 2007 while attending Syracuse University School of Architecture Master’s program. The presentation can be viewed here, “A Brief History of Sustainable Building Design“.
