Environmental Design 5
Environmental Design 5 : Examples: Examples of the environmental design process include use of roadway noise computer models in design of noise barriers and use of roadway air dispersion models in analyzing and designing urban highways. Designers consciously working within this more recent framework of philosophy and practice seek a blending of nature and technology, regarding ecology as the basis for design. Some believe that strategies of conservation, stewardship, and regeneration can be applied at all levels of scale from the individual building to the community, with benefit to the human individual and local and planetary ecosystems. Specific examples of large scale environmental design projects include: Boston Transportation Planning Review. BART - Bay Area Rapid Transit System Daly City Turnback project and airport extension. Metropolitan Portland, Oregon light rail system
