Day by day people become more conscious about sustainability and try to live environmentally friendly. In such a condition sustainability in architectural design becomes more important. In this paper applying sustainability concepts on architectural design is discussed. In the third year architectural design studio students are supposed to design a sustainable project that is respectable to the environment and also using renewable energy sources. The aim of this paper is to put forward integration of sustainability with respect to material usage in architectural design. The projects of third year studio students are taken as a case study and integration of sustainable structures and materials to architectural design is discussed.

<p class="Keywords">Integration of human knowledge principle has been widespread in the world of Islamic education, including in Indonesia. Partially seen as an attempt to build a school of thought of architecture education, the principle opens the discussion on the discursive level of design thinking. This paper reveals an explorative effort to translate the idea into a class experiment in an architectural design studio. This class experimental research uses a content analysis of students’ reflective writing who involve the design process that deliberately begins with the introduction of revealed knowledge (Arabic: <em>wahy</em>) in Architectural Design Studio 7 at the Department of Architecture, Universitas Islam Indonesia. In conclusion, it has formulated a dynamic and multi-dimensional construction of design thinking based on the integration of knowledge</p>
