Sustainability is a concept and word that has been politically, economically-driven and environmentally heightened. Reiterating the ideologies highlighted previously in ‘Green washing’ emphasis on sustainability can most certainly be applied to every consistency of infrastructure and design. It also emphasises the impacts on lifestyle, personal preference and choices made to reflect a sustainable future.
It was interesting to note the development of built environments in this instance but also to signify the concept of linear progression, greatly signified in the concept of architecture fiction. This can be delivered on several levels, emphasising the short and long-term imperatives of a building. My architectural fiction may embody the effects of a continuous ideology that is preserved in the spaces, places and time.
There seems to be no value in preserving a building due to its age, seeming useless useability and refuse. The discourse of design and adaption can be denoted through sequential ideas and process. Ephemeral dynamics and dimensional characteristics can create a detailed scope of strategies for architecture futures. Adaptation is an important component to the ideologies and outcomes of sustainability. In Australia’s context, employing sustainability frameworks has highlighted the repercussions of unsustainable spaces.
