Guiding Research Questions

• What information can researchers offer architects/designers about the ways in which people and groups with different needs and purposes behave in different settings?

• What questions should I ask to solve problems focusing on humans and their social needs towards sustainable built environment by using multi-research methods (social ramifications)?

• How can I find better ways to translate research into practice
