Abstract
Today, due to the rapid growth of urbanization, sustainability has become an indispensable requirement. Sustainable urban strategies have the potential to integrate the use of sustainability in interior architecture. This chapter examines the potentials of using sustainability as the primary design parameter in interior design. Based on these concepts, an interior design studio was examined. This interior design studio exists as a part of Istanbul Technical University Department of Interior Architecture Program. The university's campus is one of the top 40 green campuses in Europe. Starting from the green campus perspective of Istanbul Technical University, the studio aims to bring a sustainable approach to campus interiors. The studio is a tool to discuss the potentials of accepting sustainability as the primary design parameter in interior design. This approach presents sustainability as a defining factor for the interiors, while also broadening the perspective for when issues of sustainability help create unique characteristics for the interior atmosphere.
