So how do we shift from standard design to eco-logical design? 
The author’s experience in teaching architecture suggests change will not come about unless different 
design methods are introduced. It is difficult to compare and contrast design methods, as the design 
process is often quite subjective, individualistic and personal. Most designers have well-established 
personal work habits, if not explicit design strategies. Yet there is surprisingly little published in the 
area of actual design thinking.
46
This may be partly because the design process is difficult to articulate.
Also, some designers may like to retain some mystery or mystique, or to conceal the lack thereof.
Generalizations can nonetheless be offered for purposes of opening up the topic of design method 
for wider discussion. First, conventional design has been driven by stylistic and industrial norms, 
as a review of design journals would readily confirm. That is to say, buildings are designed of, for 
and by the industrial system, and modified by the imperatives of current fashion. The broad trend 
in green design has thus been towards ‘greening’ the International Style.
47
However, green buildings 
could meet the demands of industrial production without reflecting industrial values. Second, many 
architecture schools still tend to emphasize image, graphics or sculptural elements (eg shape, line, 
form and axes). In many student exhibitions, ‘artistic expression’ seems to be elevated over whole 
systems or ecological considerations. And high art has often been equated with ‘other worldliness’.

Design Methods
Can’t eco-logical design be integrated with artistic and sculptural qualities?
Absolutely. All good designers could integrate ecological functions with sculptural forms. They could 
blend exciting ‘modern’ forms with ‘ancient’ passive solar and eco-logical design principles, or vice 
versa. As we said, both ecologically and structurally sound development are essential for public health 
and safety. Therefore, ecological standards should be no more voluntary than structural or safety 
standards. But often, when taught, eco-logical design principles tend to be presented as optional.
The author was once told by the head of an architecture department that teaching ecological design 
could limit the career opportunities of those who might wish to do other kinds of architecture and 
would not know how. Also, passive solar design is often taught as part of the ‘mechanical equipment 
of buildings’ stream, in a way that largely appeals to more mechanically-minded students, and is then 
forgotten in the design studio. In some schools, passive design principles are treated as token technical 
issues to be squeezed into the curriculum – 
neither
as high art, nor as a basic ‘bottom line’. In other 
words, the artistic and experiential aspects of design are given more importance, and ecological 
elements are seen as mere technologies. So although skylights, atria and other features could create 
exciting sculptural features, they are usually just optional mechanical ‘add ons’. And when the design 
cost exceeds the budget, ‘add ons’ are the first to be cut by project managers. Exceeding the budget 
is almost inevitable, due to the exclusion of quantity surveyors and builders from the design process, 
among other things. However, the design method itself also relegates ecological considerations to 
secondary status.
