Sustainability in Architectural Regeneration
Sustainability is one of the drivers of architectural regeneration, but to achieve a truly sustainable solution, the process of regeneration has to consider the multiple dimensions of sustainability. A sustainable built environment is one that is high quality and socially, culturally, and economically viable in the long‐term while having a minimal impact on the environment. Designing and planning for sustainability is therefore designing for longevity and the process of regeneration represents significant opportunities in this respect. Achieving a sustainable regeneration can be challenging, particularly in relation to minimising carbon emissions from existing buildings without losing their cultural and social significance. Furthermore, sustainability can only truly be achieved when a holistic approach is taken that considers the built, natural and economic context, the social wellbeing, and the political and behavioural change required to implement good practice. Successful existing solutions are therefore contextual and varied, but all share a common ethical underpinning.
