摘要
The complexity of green and sustainable transformation processes in the urban and architectural reality of Jordanian cities is increased by the effects of inappropriate building material use and inadequate design processes. This paper focuses on the difficulty of introducing sensible building proposals in underdeveloped contexts, caused by the inadequate definition of technical requirements for building performance. The aim of this paper is to provide innovative means to modify the parameters and practices of related projects, highlighting the concept of affordability as crucial in sustainable design processes and related technical choices in underdeveloped environments. The methodology adopted in this paper is based on theories that promote innovative visions, approaches, and concepts regarding the availability of building materials and energy resources. This paper introduces dynamism into sustainable architectural and urban regeneration, firstly make them more integrated to minimize waste, and through design processes that reduce environmental impact during renovating of existing buildings introducing recycling plans. Other outcomes of this paper include the use of affordable green and sustainable architectural parameters and the introduction of active proposals to simplify the complexity of the unbalanced relationship between affordability and sustainability in building design. © 2020 WITPress.
