100 WORD STATEMENT:
Sustainable design minimizes the negative environmental impacts in all three pillars. Passive design takes advantage of the environment to maximise comfortability, and in turn relates to biomimicry through its response to nature. My design is passive and focuses on materiality and construction to minimise its ecological footprint. It uses glass throughout most of the model rather than solid walls to allow circulation and natural light to fill the space. The other materials are all recycled and can be repurposed. I accomplished my objectives of remaining passive in my model my implementing all the design principles and using biomimicry for my butterfly roof. Overall it was successful because all the strengths of the previous models were implemented. This model ultimately remains passive in design and functionality through its material and construction decisions.
