Sustainability in Architecture
Sustainable and Organic architecture stems from a reverence of the natural
environment and an understanding that the wellbeing of the human psyche cannot
be nurtured by removing people from the natural world in which they belong. Sustainability is important as there is more pressure on
resources, but it's not simply a matter of energy and resources. Light is a powerful substance. The qualities of
the space must be seen, and the architecture of the form must not be
dominant. To this end, Organic buildings grow
from the ground as one with their site, but they also provide occupants a
connection to the exterior environment. It's about making the most of limited means, including
resources and energy, and remembering that buildings have a purpose and a
mission. We have a primal connection to
it, a certain attitude to architectural design and architecture should begin with the way it is used, and
not as a sculptured object. Architecture took off as high art, a fragile, delicate aesthetic, an idea that no matter how heavy architecture is, it still can be floating on air.
