Abstract

The current interpretation of sustainability is rather ego centric. We tend to view sustainability as a tool to merely satisfy our own needs for esteem while the bigger picture is often placed in the background. This unconscious and unintended (mis)usage of sustainability is completely wrong and should be changed. Sustainability should become part of our primal necessities.
This graduation project and research focusses on how the built environment can be used in order to foster awareness and consciousness about sustainability and nudge people towards a sustainable mindset.
