The article titled "Integral design – a necessity for sustainable building design," authored by Wim Zeiler, from the Faculty of Architecture and the Built Environment of the Eindhoven University of Technology and published on the REHVA, Federation of European Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning Associations website, underscores the growing importance of creating sustainable buildings through optimal resource usage.

The article emphasises the need for a shift from the dichotomy between architecture and technology towards integral design. Integral design, a collaborative approach between architects and engineers, offers a solution to bridge the gap and achieve more functional and sustainable buildings.
