This study provides a framework using matrices that address three main issues. First of all, the matrices are used to integrated physical needs that compose human systems in an attempt to reduce the human impact. Secondly, the matrices are used to develop a higher integration of time allowing the user to apply time to a wide variety of needs that contribute to a high quality of life. Lastly the matrices are used to integrate the aspects of space with the aspects of time. This shows that the whole, time and space, is greater than the sum of the parts. I pursued this study in an attempt to further define sustainable design. The application of the matrices was practiced in a design competition for urban sustainability. / Department of Architecture
