Patterns of Sustainability Big Ideas
• We look at patterns we see in the natural and built environments we inherit from our predecessors
• We will identify patterns that nourish and inspire over time, those that do not

Patterns of Sustainability Big Ideas
• There are Analytical perspectives on sustainability: – PPP/EEE triple bottom line, Bruntland, …
• And emotional - how built architecture: • Gives us memory and a sense of place • Balances practicality and art • Gives physical representation of a culture
• But the analytical and emotional seem disparate • Therefore, let’s look at and develop personal “patterns
of sustainability” – Fundamental ethical issue: what and how you
choose to create the environments for your generation and your descendants

Roots of sustainability
• Ancient history: preserve; develop slowly: – American Indian culture; Beijing/ Florence? – My grandparents: very thrifty farmers
• > Industrial revolution – develop quickly & deplete

Steele: roots of sustainability
• 1970s “Zero growth” – Population Bomb, Ehrlich – 1968 – First Earth day – 1970 – Limits to Growth - 1972
• 1980s Sustainability – Brandt commission North – South – 1980 – Bruntland report Our Common Future promise of
environment and economic development - 1987 • Discussion of values, standard of living
– “Triple bottom line” – equity, ecology, economy Week 1: 3 April 7

Sustainability
• Sustainability now links economic development with ecological (and now cultural) preservation – both economic development and ecology must
and have started to redefine their values more broadly
– To develop either indefinitely over time requires the other
• Fundamentally an ethical question: how do we want to care for those who are yet unborn? – Has analytical and emotional facets

Week 1: 3 April 10
Big Idea
We will (Course goals are) • See the "built environment" of these
places where we now are privileged to live, Stanford, Beijing, Florence
• Interpret patterns of sustainability from – Theory – Individual and group self-perceptions
![Page 11: CEE113: Patterns of Sustainability John Kunzkunz/CEE113/CEE113W1.pdfJohn Kunz Agenda • Class introduction – Content • Goals and methods Week 1: 3 April 2 Patterns of Sustainability](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052614/6075f908fb6e433a7c076ab3/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Week 1: 3 April 11
Environments
• Natural: created by nature, over time Built: physical, created by people, over time
– Symbolic buildings, e.g., palaces, churches – Public spaces e.g., parks – Economic, e.g., dams, roads, ports, mines – Private buildings and spaces, e.g., the
home, study area • Intangible: non-physical, created by people,
over time – Food, religion, customs, myths, arts

Week 1: 3 April 13
1. photo: Puerta de Europa
• These two leaning towers form a modern triumphal arch in Northern Madrid, open to the city, and symbolically reference such buildings in Paris and Pisa.

Week 1: 3 April 14
2. - sketch
• Window within window within window in the Museo de Picasso, a view into an intimate space within and an invitation to go within.

Week 1: 3 April 15
3. – Formal framework Example: Barcelona museum
Function (design intent):
Form (designed and built physical
elements)
Behaviors (predicted/ observed
performance) Show ancient and new forms of the museum
Ancient columns & walls, modern windows
View opens to 3 viewed and a hidden space
Beauty (Classic) multiple arches and columns
Contrast of old and new; accessible human scale
Classical forms Arches, columns, rectangles, spaces
Grand in concept, accessible in scale
![Page 16: CEE113: Patterns of Sustainability John Kunzkunz/CEE113/CEE113W1.pdfJohn Kunz Agenda • Class introduction – Content • Goals and methods Week 1: 3 April 2 Patterns of Sustainability](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052614/6075f908fb6e433a7c076ab3/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Week 1: 3 April 16
4. – Personal vignette
• We visited the Gaudi Sagrada Familia. Standing at the front of the building, students looked captivated by the sight -- a personal example of the power of architecture to inspire
![Page 17: CEE113: Patterns of Sustainability John Kunzkunz/CEE113/CEE113W1.pdfJohn Kunz Agenda • Class introduction – Content • Goals and methods Week 1: 3 April 2 Patterns of Sustainability](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052614/6075f908fb6e433a7c076ab3/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Week 1: 3 April 17
5. (joint) Patterns: Example - MACBA
• Pattern 61. Small public squares: – A town needs public squares. If too large, they
look deserted – Make public squares 45-60 feet across (any length
ok)
![Page 18: CEE113: Patterns of Sustainability John Kunzkunz/CEE113/CEE113W1.pdfJohn Kunz Agenda • Class introduction – Content • Goals and methods Week 1: 3 April 2 Patterns of Sustainability](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052614/6075f908fb6e433a7c076ab3/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Week 1: 3 April 18
Example - Puerta de Europa
• Pattern 62. High places: – Build occasional high places as landmarks
throughout the city • Natural or built towers • Should require a physical climb
![Page 19: CEE113: Patterns of Sustainability John Kunzkunz/CEE113/CEE113W1.pdfJohn Kunz Agenda • Class introduction – Content • Goals and methods Week 1: 3 April 2 Patterns of Sustainability](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052614/6075f908fb6e433a7c076ab3/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Week 1: 3 April 19
Example - Madrid
• Pattern 64. Pools and Streams: – We came from water; we need constant access to
water – Preserve natural pools and streams – Create fountains in places without natural running
water
![Page 20: CEE113: Patterns of Sustainability John Kunzkunz/CEE113/CEE113W1.pdfJohn Kunz Agenda • Class introduction – Content • Goals and methods Week 1: 3 April 2 Patterns of Sustainability](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052614/6075f908fb6e433a7c076ab3/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Week 1: 3 April 20
Example – Museo Picasso
• Pattern 66. Holy Ground: – In each community, identify some sacred site as
consecrated; form a series of nested precincts, each more private and more sacred, each marked by a gateway
– Whatever is holy will be felt as holy only if it is hard to reach, if it requires layers of access, waiting, approach, passage through a series of gates
![Page 21: CEE113: Patterns of Sustainability John Kunzkunz/CEE113/CEE113W1.pdfJohn Kunz Agenda • Class introduction – Content • Goals and methods Week 1: 3 April 2 Patterns of Sustainability](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052614/6075f908fb6e433a7c076ab3/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Week 1: 3 April 21
Example – Madrid boulevard
• EEE: – Equity: good - open to all – Ecology: good that there is nature; people walk.
Bad (?) that there are lots of cars on street – Economy: good that enables recreation and
commerce; bad that has low asset utilization – Summary: helpful addition to community
