This study intends to analyze the concept of sustainability focusing on design approaches for buildings amd communities in relation to architectural design methods. Since the extent of sustainability in buildings and communities still poses challenges on how to measure, evaluate, and interpret it into the architectural design, the study develops an architectural design method to understand and evaluate the sustainable buildings against economical, environmental, social and other aspects. The study analyzes and evaluates various cases of selected sustainable buildings and the sustainable communities. Conclusively, the study demonstrates clearly how the buildings'elements can be used to achieve the concept of sustainability in designs. Not only that but also, the study clarifies the differences between the sustainable buildings' and sustainable communities' approaches. Finaly, the study presents a broad spectrum of possibilities of approaches that can be used by architects and students to achieve sustainability in the studies of architectural design.
