CLIMATE DESIGN & SUSTAINABILITY
Adaptive design and planning for the era of climate change. Climate as an Architectural Instrument

Every day our climate is changing. Year after year the building and environmental legislations are also changing. The design of a building or a neighbourhood becomes a challenging process. The integration of sustainable climate concepts in the architectural design and urban planning play hereby increasingly an essential role.
This design studio addresses the integration of climate design and sustainability. Specific topics as growing scarcity of free space, energy, mobility, water and materials, are a real starting point. The aim is to achieve healthy, comfortable indoor and outdoor built environments.
