A regenerative approach in architectural praxis
| Resumo: | The planet has been changing asynchronously with life's ability to adapt to it. Different approaches, therefore, are required in managing the established environment, particularly those of a more holistic nature. As Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have been developed and implemented, much of the focus on buildings has been directed toward lifetime energy efficiency. Later, the concern for efficiency shifted to the embedded energy of buildings as the result of several piecemeal steps that taken to incorporate more sustainability issues and other SDG concerns, such as recycling or cradle-to-cradle. This research focuses on one path for architecture to be more encompassing in its answers and responses to the anthropogenic manifestations that characterize our current period. As such, this study focuses on the relationship between the architectural concept— before a program is developed—and the possibility of responding to a larger number of Sustainable Development Goals within a circular economic framework. The intention is to achieve a level of response that goes beyond resilience or sustainability and can place one closer to regeneration. To that end, we evaluated how an eventual manipulation of those elements along with variables that condition use, and a functional program can influence the outcome while incorporating a larger number of SDGs. Furthermore, with the eventual introduction of circular economy and project management concepts at the initial phase of building developments, an additional resilience (value) can be introduced in the built outcome through the incorporation of additional SDGs. On an operative level we enumerate the criteria and those factors that can incorporate a working matrix for the initial development phase that positively impacts the built outcome. The results can, we expect, contribute to becoming a functional tool for those in practice but also to policymaking. |
