SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS TO ARCHITECTURE
The building is located next to a big shoe factory, and its designed for 500 children of the factory’s workers, which conceived as a continuous green roof, providing and extensive playground to the sky as well as providing food and agriculture experience to the children. An experimental vegetable garden was located on top of the green roof. Five different vegetables are planted in 200m2 garden for agriculture education purpose. Also, the Farming Kindergarten received a Silver Provisional Certificate as a pilot project of LOTUS, a green rating system by the Vietnam Green Building Council. Challenges: Vietnam historically an agricultural country is facing changes as it moves to a manufacturing based economy, taking its toll on the environment. Increased droughts, floods and salinization jeopardize food supplies, while numerous motorbikes cause daily congestion and air pollution in the cities. Rapid urbanization deprives Vietnamese children of green lands and playgrounds, thus relationship with nature. Contribution: Despite a tight budget, the Vietnamese architects wanted the building to become prototype or sustainable school design, where children can learn how to grow their own food. Therefore, the combinations of local materials and low-tech construction methods are applied, which at the same time helps minimise the environmental impact as well as promote local industry. In respond to target 2.4, the approach of design for values of sustainable growth and environmental responsibility is that the architects invests in early education in a sustainable educational space topped with accessible green roof, the knot-shaped kindergarten was built with interactive energy-saving features to educate preschoolers on the importance of caring for the environment. Also in respond to target 2.2 and target 2.5, the striking feature of the building’s design is the outdoor play spaces extension onto the vegetated roof. The vegetated roof also served as an outdoor safe playground for children while they can learn how to farm. The green design has helps children to understand the importance of nature and agriculture.

Located in a Hanoi neighborhood, the VAC Library is an immense structure comprised of wooden frames with various cubicles filled with books. The building structure is almost 600 square feet library, act as an integrated production system in the rural areas compromising horticulture, aquaculture, and animal husbandry using VAC system. The library was designed to teach kids about sustainable food production. Challenges: Air pollution is one of the major environmental concerns in Vietnam. The situation of vegetable contaminants in the city that caused the increasing amount of pollution will leads to the major health issues in human respiratory system. In present- day in Hanoi, the desire to plant fresh vegetables right in resident homes became imperative. Many families organize planting vegetable at home, however, mostly following to spontaneous methods, without a strategic planning or architectural aesthetics. The Vac library are vegetable foam boxes that are placed in a narrow space in the house, or in the garden area of the balcony and top terrace. Contribution: Related to Target 2.4 and Target 2.5 , The core feature for the design of VAC is the Aquaponics, it is a system that combines conventional aquaculture (raising aquatic animals) with hydroponics (cultivating plants in water) in a symbiotic environment. The fish pond will also provide nutrients to the vegetation, and return purify the water. Chickens on site will also benefit the supply of food, which it lays eggs that used for meals, and their waste will used as fertiliser for the center garden. In additional, the system of the boxes library is designed with energy conservation, which is using renewable energy (by transferring solar energy) and a reduced number of pumps by letting the water flow downwards naturally as much as possible. Besides, electricity for lighting and pumps are also provided -saved from solar panels on the roof. In relate to Target 2.1, the library have produce the effective used of natural resources and experimentations in using different types of plants and animals in the urban environment.

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS TO ARCHITECTURE
Located in Penang Science Park, Bukit Minyak, this 162,000-square-foot ‘Factory in the Forest’ is completed in January 2017, served as the office and manufacture zones of the Paramit Corporation. This new facility is able to house 800 people. The entire 5 acre site is conceived as a forest that penetrates, surrounds & steps over the buildings maximising contact with nature. The building won the FUTURARC Green Leadership Award in 2018. Challenges: Design leaves a critical impact on energy consumption and performance, and even the ecological footprint of the building. The unique features of Malaysian climate inspires Paramit Factory to rely on passive systems to create maximum energy efficiency and reduce power requirements. Contribution: Energy efficiency is achieved via the use of passive systems. Passive systems like trees and vegetation around the building, which helps shade the walls and windows, reduces the building’s cooling load effectively. Energy efficiency is also realized via the high-level sunshade louver canopy which provides solar protection to the parking areas, courtyard, office roof and other spaces below, resulting in less heat gain in the space. To respond well to the hot climate of Malaysia, the north-facing skylight is complemented with internal deflector panel which provides soft natural light while keeping the heat out. The building also incorporated innovative radiant floor system with embedded PEX pipes in concrete slabs throughout the factory, which cools down the slab to 21°C. The structural element thus doubles as cooling system and allows the magnetic bearing chiller to operate at a significant higher efficient.

Manitoba Hydro Place is the headquarters building of Manitoba Hydro. In May 2012, Manitoba Hydro Place becomes the recipient of the LEED Platinum certification, making it the most energy efficient office tower in North America and the only office tower in Canada to receive the LEED Platinum rating. It is integrated with advanced technologies to achieve a ‘living building’ that responds to the local climate dynamically. Challenges: Winnipeg’s extreme climate can fluctuate from from -35ºC to +34ºC over the year. The 64500 m² tower is targeting less than 100 kWh/m²/a for a large scale office tower located in a more temperate climate. Contribution: In order to limit energy consumption, Manitoba Hydro Place (MHP) was designed with the help of technology by using digital analysis and computerized building management systems to optimize the building's massing, orientation and exposed thermal mass. Key design features for energy efficiency includes integration of passive elements, like the siting of the building to take advantage of prevailing winds and solar gain, minimizing north-facing surface area. Green roofs also help minimize the building's heat-island effect. In response to Winnipeg extreme climate, MHP features a high performance building envelope with a glass skin that is triple-glazed —This glass offers high insulation performance in such cold climate and effectively reduced the energy needed to provide thermal comfort.

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS TO ARCHITECTURE
About 2,000 employees work out of the AirAsia RedQ (short for RedQuarters), where there are no doors or walls separating employees of all levels, including the CEO. At RedQ, there is an “open culture” to encourage open communication between employees and managers. Challenges: The client’s brief was to provide a house for AirAsia employees. The theme—under the tagline of One Big Happy Family—required designers to rethink how the large office building should be configured. The approach in the layout was to design a space for a flat hierarchical organisation that needs a horizontally organised building, with an open office design where even the upper management sits in open areas without wall enclosures. Contribution: The name RedQ, representing RedQuarters was selected, as it echoes the dynamism and spirit of the company and its workforce in making AirAsia a resilient and successful airline. The clerestory windows that can be seen at either side of the building’s roof, bringing in natural lighting and ventilation. The building itself has equipped with several facilities such as surau, meeting rooms, cafes, spacious cafeteria, flight crew lounge, gymnasium and a rooftop which doubles as a venue for corporate and in-house events, to provide convenience through sufficient facilities for the visitors as well as the worker while involved in the spaces. In terms of interior design, the industrial look of this open office plan with bare ceilings serves as a tabula rasa or blank canvas for the colours and vibrancy of the AirAsia corporate branding to imbue the spaces with a kaleidoscope of experience. A cornucopia of meeting pods, conference rooms, chill-out areas and casual workstations was individually decorated so that each room is different.

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS TO ARCHITECTURE
The project is being set up as a collaborative design-build project, integrating local stakeholders, a local women cooperation that was trained in masonry, the future pupils of the agronomy campus and students from as well TU Berlin as the local university of Cochabamba. Consequently, CODE, TU Berlin’s department for Design and Building Construction developed innovative building-structures, which integrated not only local climate conditions into the design, but moreover local stakeholders, local materials, as well as local economies and enterprises in the region of Cochabamba. Challenges: Global issues like rural migration and the rapidly growing urbanisation of our cities, increasing poverty and the threat of climate change are challenges that play a crucial role in the search for locally effective solutions in architecture. For architects and planners, the question arises how the profession can contribute most efficiently to enhance the living conditions and what spatial strategies can be developed to reach this goal. Contribution: The project is based on an integrative approach to architecture the relevant factors include both the architectural product and the multi-layered process of its creation considering technical, social, cultural and academic aspects. Related to Target 8.5, being developed by an international and interdisciplinary collaboration of experts, students and craftsmen/-women from both Germany and Bolivia the mutual transfer of knowledge between academia and practice, between the two cultures and between the different disciplines is consequently one of the superior characteristics of the project. The building used low-cost construction method which using brick replaced common concrete skeleton structures and allow the building process without professional entrepreneur which both cost efficient and earthquake proof, in a way form a selfbuild and 98% local building activities. Bolivian and German students, and local cooperative of women working as bricklayers have involved into the construction work. In respond to Target 8.7, this project helps to broaden their skills and subsequently apply their acquired knowledge of innovation building techniques to their own work, which in return, the women will train the skills for the next generation of students in second building phase, which lead to a further qualification of local communities and the students. In respond to Target 8.9, under supervision of Prof. Pasel and his team 40 students have designed, planned and realised the project together with local partners. The school building is part of the vocational school “Sayarinapaj� that offers young Bolivian students coming from rural Andean areas a professional perspective within the field.

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS TO ARCHITECTURE
Cyberjaya has been one of the two cities in Malaysia that are close to reaching the Green city, followed by Putrajaya. Cyberjaya is known for Malaysia’s main technological hub and it is aimed to have a more sustainable town. The town is populated with over 100,000 residents spreading over 1500 acres of land in Cyberjaya. Challenges As Cyberjaya is more of a technological hub for Malaysia, there are a lot of business in the area, having less space for the trees and other lands. As business grows, more buildings are built in the town. There will be more vehicles driving in and out of the town, having higher amounts of Carbon emissions produced from the vehicles as well as the buildings. Contribution In Cyberjaya, they had implemented a rule of giving penalties to Single Used Vehicles (SOV) as allowing SOV’s will increase the amount of CO2 emission from the cars. Thus, Cyberjaya had even added more cycling tracks for the people as this will help encourage on using bicycles instead of fossil fueled vehicles which will help to reduce the carbon footprint in the town itself. Bus stations are also available and convenient. The cyclist also benefits from the cycle tracks as it is cheaper than owning vehicles and also you can explore on more of the attractions in Cyberjaya as they are close to each other. For the Urban infrastructure, they had implemented that all the buildings in Cyberjaya is to use the District Cooling System (DCS) and also using energy from the organic wastes. The Town uses DCS as it can reduce the electricity usage of all the buildings by more than 65% compared to an ordinary and traditional air-conditioning system. The DCS not only helps environmentally but also help to lower the costs of the business in Cyberjaya. As the company whom manages it has wholly For the buildings, there are also partnerships with other buildings into agreeing on having green buildings such as having natural lights to light up in the building. Reducing the need of using electrical energy to light up the building. There are also solar panels to be installed on the roof the buildings such as the “Masjid Raja haji Fisabilillah” as well as having water harvest systems to store rain water and repurpose the water for other uses. Cyberjaya has implemented rules upon every building to start green by having 10% of green open space for plants and other purposes. The town has also encouraged people to have less wastage on energy such as vehicles, electricity and water. Thus, reducing the carbon emissions and improving the surrounding environment.

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS TO ARCHITECTURE
New Logic III is a sustainable distribution centre built near the highway located in Tilburg in New Zealand. The building was design in the intention to be different and more remarkable compared to other distribution centres. It is built up to about 60,500m2 in total area. New Logic III was able to achieve the “Tekla BIM Benelux� Award for one of the most sustainable warehouses in New Zealand. Challenges For most distribution and other different types of logistics buildings, most of the designs are roughly just generic and stereotypical of a storage shed. The distribution centres are also known for having to produce a lot of CO2 as it is mostly the transportation in the goods and other raw materials. So, designing the sustainability of the building is very crucial for the distribution centres. The other challenges are that the logistics industries are growing at a drastic rate, so it is important that they building is up to date with the new technology and is prepared for an improvement for the building such as having a sustainable and smart building. Contribution The Distribution centre is entirely gas-free of which it uses air- heat pumps to heat up the office and the warehouse. The centre is also highly insulated and designed to be like an air-tight structure so that it can keep the heat or cold within the centre as much as possible to control the temperature. In the building, there is a system where it uses the Trias Energetica principle which has 3 steps. The first step is to limit the amount of demand on the energy in the building. The second step is to use the sustainable energy which is generated from the solar panels installed on the top of the roof of the distribution centre. Lastly for step 3, is that when only required, is to use fossil energy but as efficient and minimal as possible. The centre has also installed bicycle lanes for the staff to park their bicycles and also this reduces the car usage. This would also encourage the staff to use less of fossil fuelled cars and more on other modes of transportation such as bicycles, electric cars, and even busses. There are even charging points available for the electric car users to park and charge their cars. They had also installed over 11,620 PV panels (Solar panels) which can sustainably generate the building’s energy as well as neutralizing the CO2 in the building. As for the water, the roof is able to collect the rainwater and repurposed such as used for the toilet flushes. There are motion detectors for the water taps that will switch off when there is no motion detected. This helps reduce the amount of water consumption. The main support structure of the centre is made of recyclable steel frames which reduces the The foundation of the building consists of reinforced concrete mixed with granulate of which help provide a stable substructure for the framework and the business operations. The centre is also built with large curtain walls as this is to allow as much daylight as possible, thus reduces the need of indoor lighting to light up the distribution centre. The building is also built with wooden facades which are certified FSC which are trees that are picked carefully and taken cared for cutting. The building also has automatic dimming LED lighting which uses lesser energy than the average lighting.

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS TO ARCHITECTURE
Songdo is the world’s first smart city consisting of only about 300000 residents spreading out over 1500 acres of land. The City Planner whom plans out the city buildings and other lands is the MVRDV and REX. The City was able to Achieve both the Korean standards and LEED certification have been employed in all major buildings. The smart city occupies 1,500 acres of land ‘reclaimed from the Yellow Sea’, making it the largest private real estate development in history. Challenges With so many devices at our fingertips (literally and figuratively), technology is a frequently debated topic as it has introduced some concerns to our society such as lack of privacy, safety, and less human interaction to name a few. Songdo’s proximity to Seoul is an advantage for business and commuters, but it also presents as a danger of becoming a bedroom community, it has been the fate of many other new towns in the Seoul Area. In the present, it has faced challenges balancing its sustainable development goals with environmentally calls for preserving bird habitats. The city aims to be green in any development to alters the natural environment. Contribution Songdo city had 40 percent of its area is dedicated to outdoor spaces, which compared to Seoul and other South Korean metropolises are densely populated with few open-air areas for residents. The district has been heavily promoting its 16miles of bicycle lanes, its central park and waterways, which reduces the needs for cars and provoke a more green environment in the city, the residential buildings were intentionally built within 12 minutes of bus and subway stops while most non-residential buildings are a walking distance from shops, restaurants, etc. Because the district was built from scratch, it has given developers the opportunity to invest heavily in technologies that have yet to debut in conventional cities. Take Songdo’s smart rubbish disposal system, a futuristic bit of hardware that spans the whole complex. No rubbish trucks will ever roam the leafy streets of Songdo, instead all household and office waste is sucked through a network of underground tubes to vast sorting facilities where it is all processed, deodorised and treated. The aim is to eventually convert all this sorted and treated waste into energy for the community, but the system is not yet fully operational. Smart grids and meters are already fairly common in Europe and the US, but the technology in Songdo is more pervasive than anything in the West. Because it was designed to this specification and not converted later like most ‘smart cities’ in the rest of the world, Songdo is completely geared towards sustainability; even the water pipes are designed to stop clean water, suitable for human consumption, being used in showers and toilets, and all of the embankment’s water goes through a sophisticated recycling system. The brains behind Songdo have thought carefully about financial incentives for businesses. Companies relocating to the district will have access to tax reductions, estate support and subsidies. No property tax will be levied for 10 years, followed by three years where businesses need only pay 50 percent of taxes due; small- and medium-sized companies will also be considered for rent reduction; and employees of companies with over 30 percent international investment will be able to claim a variety of perks – from location subsidies to promotion results compensation. The city will have four universities and will host professional development programming for local corporations. As a designated Free Economic Zone, Songdo seeks to attract banks, multinational and domestic corporations to its international business district.

The project was inspired by the idea of the rainforest in which the structure of space is determined by the logic of water. From the very beginning, local residents played an active role in defining the project, working in an interdisciplinary team made up of landscapers, engineers and artists. Throughout the development of the project the square itself was the venue for talks, debates and temporary installations giving an account of its evolution. Taasinge Square has received numerous international awards, including a Special Award in connection with the European Award for Urban Public Space 2016 Challenges: The Taasinge Square aims to provide St.Kjeld’s Quarter in Copenhagen a special green environment and sustainable landmark. In response to Target 11.5, the square intends to control and retain rainwater as much as possible from the roofs and streets found in its local site context, which delays the water flow to the sewers to cope with the heavy downpours in the future. Contribution: Taasinge Square is located in the heart of Denmark's as it is the first climate resilient neighbourhood. The handling of rainwater is exposed with advanced learning and demonstration value. As a green oasis in a densely populated city district, the square will be able to manage heavy rainfalls in the coming future.

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS TO ARCHITECTURE
Liupanshui, known for its cool plateau climate, is an industrial city built in mid 1960s in a valley surrounded by limestone hills, with the River Shuichenghe running through it. With an area of 60 square kilometers, the city is densely inhabited by a population of 0.6 million. The scope of the task includes ecological restoration of the river, the upgrading of urban open space system, as well as increasing the value of urban waterfront land. The landscape along the Shuicheng River is therefore recovered as an ecological infrastructure providing ecological services to the region. The site was officially designated as a National Wetland Park in 2013. Liupanshui Minghu Wetland Park received a 2014 ASLA Honor Award for its impressive multipurpose and ecological design. Challenges: As an element of a major campaign of environmental improvement the city government commissioned the landscape architect to develop a holistic strategy to address multiple serious problems including water pollution, flood and storm-water inundation and the inadequate of recreation of public space due to population explosion in the city. Turenscape is hence sought to improve the water quality, provide stormwater retention, recover the channelized River Shuicheng, creating a water based ecological infrastructure that would retain flood season waters and create public green space for the densely populated city. Contribution: Similarly, to Target 11.5, the strategy is to slow the flow of water from the hillside slopes and create a water-based ecological infrastructure that will retain and remediate the storm-water, and make water the active agent in regenerating a healthy ecosystem to provide natural and cultural services that transform the industrial city into a liveable human habitat. Terraced wetlands and retention ponds were created to reduce peak water flow and regulate the seasonal rainwater. The project combines waterfront development and river restoration. The ecological infrastructure catalyzes urban renewal efforts in Liupanshui, significantly increases land values, and enhances urban vitality that satisfies Target 11.4.

They envision a quality education for every child, they believe everyone has the right to learn and study regardless the socioeconomic background. With the collaboration with Harvard Business School, they planned to build 30 school all over across Sabah, and the Etania Green School is the first of the 30. Awarded with Trends Excellence Awards in the Sustainable project category. Challenges: The location of the school is along a river where there is always a massive flood happened once every 10 years which is caused by the destruction of the rainforest. As a result, the school need to be raised from the ground level. Material used shall be able to withstand the load from the building above and maximize the usable space at the ground floor. Besides that, maintain the sustainability of the chosen materials. Contribution: Five decommissioned shipping containers and some artificially made mound from soil excavated for a water harvesting pond are used as the support to raise the classrooms above from the ground and as the foundation of the classrooms. It minimises the structural component at the same time, the containers are used to accommodate the store rooms and toilet. Since the classrooms are raised and opened, it is naturally cool by the capturing the breeze. The classrooms are built from recycled timber sourced from a local construction company. All the materials used are sourced locally.

Handmade school by Anna Heringer, built in Bangladesh. The name of the building itself is selfexplanatory, a handmade school, aims to improve the living quality in the rural area. Hand built in 4 months with the participation of the local craftsmen, students, teachers and the architects by using the traditional construction method and natural local materials with some adaption of new building methods. It won the Aga Khan Award for Architecture Tenth Award Circle 06/2007 and got the Curry Stone Design Prize in 2009. Challenges: The usage of imported materials has been kept on increasing, people often believes that imported building materials are better than the local materials, so people used to import materials from overseas which result in large carbon footprint. However, local natural materials are actually good enough, provided with using the right construction method. Besides that, buildings nowadays are not designed to be environment friendly and do not comprise with the nature. While the indoor climate is often regulated with air conditioning but not depending on the building design. Contribution: The building is built by using the traditional materials like brick, loam, straw, bamboo and rope with the traditional construction and building technique, both the materials and skills from local labourers are fully utilized. The construction method used for the school is the historical earth building technique which mud is mixed with straw and applied to the walls in layers. Brick masonry is used in the foundation to prevent the mud wall above from being washed away by the rainwater. While bamboo as a resource which available all around the site, is used in the making of roof, 3 layers of bamboo are arranged accordingly to provide lateral stabilization and connection between the supporting beams. Bamboo is also used for the wall at the second level. All the natural materials are available just around the site and they are all used with full potential. When the school is no longer needed, the materials can just back to where they come from, get fully recycled without any loose of quality. For maintenance and repairing for mud wall, just add water to the broken part, and place it back to wall. Besides that, with the combination of traditional building method and modern building method, the school is passively heated and cooled. A solar heating thermal system is also used in the building to generate energy that needed by itself.

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS TO ARCHITECTURE
Hug It Forward is an US-based grassroots nonprofit organization. They have been working in Guatemala since 2009, empowering the communities there by building the ‘bottle schools’. It is school built with plastic bottles that fully stuffed with inorganic trash which they called it ‘ecobricks’, use it as the wall filler. Challenges: Plastic bottles and inorganic trashes can be seen everywhere, scattering throughout the community, billion tons of inorganic trashes are generated every year, it often end up being burned or buried and contaminate our environment and the human health. On top of that, education is something that people takes for granted in the urban area, but in the rural or indigenous area, it is something people wish for, not everyone has the opportunity to study. The awareness of sustainability of people nowadays is also weak. Contribution: Thousands of plastic bottles together with inorganic trashes like chips packet, plastic bag and polystyrene are collected from the immediate communities where this project is executed and also the surrounding communities. The project not only cleans up the trash in the community but also improve the living quality in Guatemala where they provide opportunity for education. Besides that, educate the youth about sustainability and recycling. During the construction, the whole village participates in building the school. In the process, they learnt how to differentiate the organic and inorganic trash and the negative impact to the environment. The involvement of students and the local communities empower themselves by learning a new skill and give them the ownership of the school and pride of realization of the project. The bottle schools are designed for life-long, estimated to last for 100 years. And the cost for the school is 100%-200% less than the other school in Guatamala. Besides that, Hug It Forward wish to raise awareness about the recycling, sustainable consumption and the power of community. They also share the bottle school technology in the ‘Bottle School Manual’ (BSM), parties who is interested can construct their own bottle school. It creates the ripple effect where every inauguration of the bottle school is a step to increase the opportunities towards education and increase the environmental consciousness.

The PJ Trade centre is located in Petaling Jaya, Malaysia. It is designed by Kevin Mark Low along with Seksan Design. It has won multiple FIABCI awards ever since its construction. Challenges: Minimizing the damage to the natural environment while constructing a large building in a natural environment. By erecting an office building requiring a large area means that a large area of forest will be required to be demolished during construction. This project minimizes loss of land through its landscape planning Contribution: The PJ Trade Centre in Petaling Jaya, Malaysia aims to reduce the loss of natural environment lost during the construction of the building by recreating a natural habitat within the building. A 2.5-acre man-made forest consisting of more than 1,600 trees is featured in the building to restore a portion of the demolished forest, the man-made forest acts as a habitat for local wildlife species such as small insects and birds. The placing of building elements is also carefully planned to ensure that greenery placed throughout the building are able to be sustained through the use of natural elements, this is achieved by creating voids in between buildings blocks and utilizing aluminum gratings as flooring to connect the buildings. The aluminum gratings allow rainwater to travel through them, allowing the vegetations placed beneath to be watered through rainwater. Due to the tropical climate of Malaysia, the frequent rainfall allows the plants to be sustained without the use of water sources and watering equipment. Furthermore, the materials used for the construction of the PJ Trade Centre are raw and unpainted, the materials are also recycled local materials. This allows the PJ Trade Centre to further decrease the harm done to its surrounding natural environment.

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS TO ARCHITECTURE
The ACROS is an office building located in Fukuoka, Japan. It is designed by Emilio Ambasz which features a stairs-like façade with a wide variety of greeneries. Challenges: Preserving one of the last few parks found in the city of Fukuoka. The ACROS building found in Fukuoka Japan was proposed to be constructed on a piece of green land which happened to be one of the last parks of Fukuoka. The project utilizes proper planning to maintain the amount of greeneries and restore natural habitats. Contribution: The main goal of ACROS Fukuoka in Japan is to restore its destroyed landscape by utilizing its large roof area to imitate a hill. The roof of ACROS Fukuoka is equipped with 35,000 plants and 76 different plant species, but since its construction, birds have brought in seeds resulting the roof 50,000 plants and 120 different species. And these plants replace a large portion of nature that was destroyed during construction and they consist of mainly local plant species to ensure the preservation of local species. The idea was to manipulate the landform using the building to imitate the hill which allows the green roof to be connect to the remaining untouched nature allowing users of the park to interact with the green roof as well. The green roof is also able to capture rainwater runoff thus allowing the plants to be watered naturally throughout the year with rainwater, as a result, the built-in sprinkler system for the ACROS building has not been used since its construction as consistent rainwater has been provided throughout the years of Fukuoka’s coastal climate assuring the sustenance of its vegetations. The green roof also acts as a natural habitat for small animals and insects of the surrounding environment compensating for the destruction of the natural wildlife habitat during the construction of the building.

The Phipps conservatory and botanical gardens is a botanical garden and conservatory center that is located at Pittsburgh, USA. It was awarded the Global sustainability leadership award. Challenges: Constructing a conservatory centre linked to an existing building and site while dealing minimal damage to the environment. The project is a proposed extension to the existing Phipps conservatory and Botanical gardens found on the Schenley Park. The project minimizes the green field loss of the park through its landscape design and material use. Contribution: The conservatory center features multiple gardens including a rooftop garden to maintain the green environment of the Schenley Park which it is constructed on. The garden collaborates with its pervious asphalt in order to capture rainwater runoff which is then stored and reused to water the gardens. The gardens of the conservatory center also consist of local flora species in order to provide a natural habitat to the pollinators of its local plants therefore reducing the damage caused to the natural habitat for its local wildlife while allowing its local plants to spread to its surrounding. The conservatory centres also demonstrated proper use of materials to reduce harm to the nature. The timber used to construct the conservatory centre is Black Locust Lumber, which are originally hard and does not require treatment. Also, the sandstone selected to construct the building are also local from the quarries in Pittsburgh. Phipps Conservatory focuses on avoiding the Living Building Red List materials which consist of harmful chemicals causing harm to the environment.

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS TO ARCHITECTURE
The University of Arizona (UA) College od Medicine Phoenix, in partnership with and Northern Arizona University, is creating a new model for an integrated and interdisciplinary approach to health sciences education and research. Challenges: The problem and building design was developed by CO Architects to support an independent and collaborative health sciences education and research campus on a 28-arc urban setting in downtown Phoenix. The design for the Health Sciences Education Building is inspired from Arizona’s mountains and canyons and responds to the desert climate, characterized by intense sunlight and extreme temperatures. The siting of the building originates from the master plan by Ayers Saint Gross that establishes a north-south central campus green connecting the historic buildings to the south with future research facilities to the north. Contribution: The Health Sciences Education Building (HSEB) is part of the inter-institutional campus for health science education and research, and supports the colleges of medicine, allied health, and biomedical informatics. A key characteristic of the program is a model of collective resources shared by the UA College of Medicine-Phoenix, the UA College of Pharmacy, and the UA Mel and Enid Zuckerman College of Public Health, as well as by Northern Arizona University’s College of Health and Human Services programs. An interactive planning process, which involved educators from the cross-section of health sciences disciplines, has worked collaboratively to create an educational vision of a team- based continuity of care model.
