Integrating Ecological, Economic, and Social Sustainability in Spatial Design: A Holistic Approach to Future-Ready Spaces
Abstract
This chapter examines the critical need for an all-encompassing framework that integrates the social, economic, and ecological aspects of sustainability in spatial design. It looks at how designers may make spaces that promote social inclusion, economic viability, and ecological footprint reduction. The chapter outlines methods for creating resilient and adaptive settings that support the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the UN by embracing systems thinking and utilizing cutting-edge technologies. It explores case studies that show how holistic sustainability concepts have been successfully applied, highlighting the relationship between long-term economic growth, community well-being, and natural ecosystems. The conversation emphasizes how designers can be change agents and pushes for a paradigm change toward methods that are prepared for the future and put responsibility, teamwork, and diversity first.
