The basic objectives of sustainability are to reduce consumption of non-renewable resources, minimize waste, and create healthy, productive environments.Utilizing a sustainable design philosophy encourages decisions at each phase of the design process that will reduce negative impacts on the environment and the health of the occupants, without compromising the bottom line. It is an integrated, holistic approach that encourages compromise and tradeoffs. Such an integrated approach positively impacts all phases of the object's life-cycle, including design, construction/manufacture, operation and decommissioning/recycling.There are common misconceptions about sustainable design. Among them are:Sustainability Equals EnvironmentalismSustainability Equals TechnologySustainable Design Costs Too MuchSustainable Design Takes More TimeSustainability isn’t About DesignSustainable Design Isn’t BeautifulBeyond the "elimination of negative environmental impact", sustainable design must create projects that are meaningful innovations that can shift behavior. A dynamic balance between economy and society, intended to generate long-term relationships between user and object/service and finally to be respectful and mindful of the environmental and social differences.Hosey, Lance.
