“…Sustainable construction is a suitable example of such a focal point as it is not a topic that is relevant to single individuals and organizations, but is globally important. In addition, critically acknowledged across the literature is that no single group can effectively change common praxis [38]. Rather, harnessing the interest and input of actor networks who are not directly involved in decision making processes but are both impacted and have the potential to impact others is an important aspect of an issue oriented conception of stakeholders [39,40].…”

“…Rather, harnessing the interest and input of actor networks who are not directly involved in decision making processes but are both impacted and have the potential to impact others is an important aspect of an issue oriented conception of stakeholders [39,40]. According to Feige et al [38], research conducted in the Swiss context has shown that in sustainable construction efforts, key stakeholders fall into three main categories where "internal, strategic stakeholders" are concerned with different phases of the project's life cycle, and "both internal and external stakeholders", as well as "external, normative stakeholders" represent an interest in all phases of a project's life cycle. In this view, "planners/designers" are indicated as functioning in a categorical role of "internal, strategic stakeholders", along with investors, manufacturer/suppliers, banks/financial institutions and end users/owners.…”

Despite documented political support for energy reduction measures in Switzerland's built environment, as well as high international regard for its construction and research sectors, design practitioners and researchers perceive a diverse set of challenges involved in the implementation of green development solutions. Grounded in Science and Technology Studies (STS), observations drawn from 31 semi-structured qualitative interviews conducted with Swiss building industry experts provide insight into the relationships between designers, researchers and public authorities. A series of examples from the empirical data show how regulatory frictions and the challenges of implementing construction strategies into diverse domestic and international working contexts are ameliorated.

“…However, a relatively few number of buildings are currently certified compared to the total number of newly built buildings (1). Within the construction sector, the rate of cooperation, expansion in the diversity of goods, incorporation of external knowledge, as well as market expenditure are low compared to those of other industries (2).…”

(2017 ABSTRACTThe Smart Sustainable Offices project (SSO) is a product of years of research with large sets of data collected from more than 30 office buildings in Switzerland, Sweden, and Spain. Based on scientific evidence, the concept of SSO, initially conceived as a research plan to address the interdependencies between office users and their working environment in a European context, is now used as a qualitative and quantitative mixed method approach for office diagnosis and ideation. At the current stage, the SSO methodology aims to implement a new paradigm of user-oriented, lower carbon footprint and resilient office design solutions. The main strategy is articulated around the "office DNA" of every organisation, decoded as a compound of work patterns, operational and individual needs, and their potential to define design criteria. The practical application of SSO and its tentative findings exemplified through three pilot test office-demonstrators are described in this paper.Keywords: Office DNA; employees' needs; comfort experience; indoor environmental quality; sustainable office design; space-resilience; work patterns.
