Centre for Architecture and Sustainable Environment (CASE)

Description

The Centre for Architecture and Sustainable Environment (CASE) aims to promote research in the field of sustainable design regionally, nationally and internationally.

Its research focus encompasses different aspects and scales of the sustainable built environment from the individual building to the urban block. CASE's research is at the forefront of developments in the areas of thermal comfort, climate change adaptation, environmental performance of buildings and urban spaces, and the historical and cultural dimension of environmental design.

CASE has extended laboratory infrastructure for environmental monitoring in the built environment and specialised software. Its capabilities include undertaking thermal imaging surveys, monitoring of microclimatic conditions and other weather data in different operational contexts, along with lighting studies.
