Thesis Abstract

Abstract
Sustainable design principles have become increasingly paramount in contemporary architectural practice, particularly in the context of urban redevelopment projects. This thesis explores the implementation of sustainable design principles in urban redevelopment projects, aiming to address environmental, social, and economic challenges while creating resilient and vibrant urban spaces. The research delves into the background of sustainable design, the problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance of the study, and defines key terms. Chapter Two presents a comprehensive literature review, examining existing studies, theories, and best practices related to sustainable design principles in urban redevelopment projects. The review encompasses topics such as green building strategies, adaptive reuse, energy efficiency, material selection, urban regeneration, and community engagement. Chapter Three outlines the research methodology employed in this study, including research design, data collection methods, sampling techniques, data analysis procedures, and ethical considerations. The methodology incorporates both qualitative and quantitative approaches to gather insights and data on the implementation of sustainable design principles in urban redevelopment projects. Chapter Four presents a detailed discussion of the findings derived from the research. The chapter explores the challenges and opportunities associated with integrating sustainable design principles in urban redevelopment projects, highlighting case studies and examples of successful implementations. The discussion emphasizes the importance of collaboration among stakeholders, innovative design solutions, and the role of technology in achieving sustainable urban redevelopment. Chapter Five offers a comprehensive conclusion and summary of the thesis. It synthesizes the key findings, implications, and recommendations for future research and practice in implementing sustainable design principles in urban redevelopment projects. The conclusion underscores the significance of sustainable design in creating resilient, inclusive, and environmentally conscious urban environments. In conclusion, this thesis contributes to the growing body of knowledge on sustainable design principles in urban redevelopment projects, highlighting the importance of integrating environmental considerations, social equity, and economic viability in architectural practice. By promoting sustainable design strategies, urban redevelopment projects can enhance the quality of life for residents, mitigate environmental impacts, and contribute to the long-term sustainability of urban communities.
