Sustainable practices in design and architecture address how buildings and spaces can reduce their environmental footprint while serving human needs. This includes material selection, energy efficiency, waste management, and integration with natural systems.

The community explores sustainable design across scales, from timber housing prototypes and vertical farming systems to waste management infrastructure and ecological retreats. Work ranges from conceptual frameworks for greener architecture to built projects demonstrating practical applications of sustainable principles.

Healing Façade

Based on the belief of forest churches in the chain of interdependence between humans and non-humans, the proposal is a feasible, modular and replicable facade to address the gap made by unsustainable human actions. Through fibers, the façade catches water from the wind to protect vegetation and foster conditions for reforestation and landscape restoration.
