| Abstract: | The objective of this research is to investigate the origins of sustainable design, comprehend its present status, and project its future development. The thesis is structured into three main parts. Firstly, I conducted historical research into sustainable design, delving into its developmental trajectory. In the second part, I examined the contemporary Chinese and Dutch markets to analyze the current state of sustainable design. Subsequently, I formulated a taxonomy to depict the prevailing conditions of sustainable design. In the final section, I employed inductive reasoning to derive a sustainable development model. However, due to the intricate nature of sustainable design and the multitude of factors influencing its dynamics, I refrained from providing a definitive portrayal of future sustainable design. Instead, I focused on exploring the practical application of the sustainable design development model. |
