In Summary:

We use these invariably  interconnected ordering systems as a means of verifying the relevance of our ideas. Our solutions must be multi-layered and satisfy the complex range of design determinants present in all urban settings.

Over the years, we have come to understand and appreciate that this array of ordering systems and sources form, places an array of revitalization tools at our disposal, and have the capacity to effect profound change in urban environments.

In turn, these ordering systems become our definition of sustainability.
