N2 - Three buildings in north-east England provide examples of very particular design responses to differing physical and development contexts, each incorporating a range of environmental innovations to achieve sustainability. It is argued that each building is shaped by a merging of distinctive philosophies of green design and by the widely differing motivations and competing social commitments of the actors involved. Thus we must view sustainable building not simply as a question of technical design but fundamentally as a social construct
