Is there some way that making a building more accessible to all yields greater environmental benefit? I can't think of any examples right now but if I do I'll be sure to post... _________________ Joel McKellar, LEED AP Real Life LEED - A blog devoted to practicing LEED professionals

So i will suggest you to zoom down to your aims (like where you want to deal in this particular field). There are many aspects of sustainability/ green architecture and it is ineed difficult to cover all of them in the time you will be dedicating for your thesis. From your topic of intrest I get that you are dealing with the peculier class of the community. So first check out how any aspect of the Sustaianbility is useful to your design philosophy. With best wishes Prachi Nimgaonkar
