INTEGRATED DESIGN PROCESS
A Training Workshop on the Greening Process
Copyright. Nirmal Kishnani, PhD
The Integrated Design Process (IDP) is described as one in which all stakeholders of the process – architects, engineers, developers, occupants, etc – establish a common understanding of performance and chart out a roadmap. It is iterative and collaborative, in which the team strives towards agreed targets at the drawing board. A Green building is at heart the product of integrative thinking, different from the conventional design-construction process which is fragmented into disciplinary silos. The challenge of building Green lies in the process, in getting stakeholders to collectively focus on performance targets and outcomes.
It has been shown that where there is synergy between stakeholders, a shared focus on clear targets, performance is significantly better than if team members strive on their own. And when this is applied to the building’s relationship to its environment, its inhabitants and the community at large, the process achieves a quantum leap in Greener outcomes.The first challenge of IDP is articulating a holistic notion of Green. The second challenge is operationalising principles into practice, i.e. a roadmap for multidisciplinary thinking.
This workshop consists of two components.
- Lectures. This will establish an operative framework for Greening; how we define performance and outcomes, when should we intervene and why it matters, supported with case studies of projects from Asia and beyond.
- Design Charrette. A charrette is an exercise in collaborative thinking, one that exposes the group to IDP principles. This walk-through illustrates value of multidisciplinary thinking at the drawing board.

About Nirmal Kishnani
Trained in Architecture and is now an educator, sustainable design consultant and writer based in Singapore. He has since collaborated on projects across Asia, written and lectured extensively on the subject of Greening, addressing Green Building Congresses in India, Taiwan and the Philippines. As design practitioner he worked on several landmark projects in Singapore until 1998 when, interest in environmental buildings, led him to a doctorate and subsequently setting up the first Singapore-based Green design consultancy. In 2007 Nirmal accepted a position with the National University of Singapore where he teaches sustainability at the Department of Architecture. He is also Chief Editor of the FuturArc Journal.
