The Purpose of this study, we aimed to expand the concept of sustainability by conducting a time-periodic analysis of the conceptual change in Christoph Ingenhoven’s understanding of architectural sustainability, which moves beyond the limits of most planned eco-friendly architectural approaches and relies solely on physical control technology. To conduct this analysis, we first considered Supergreen, the sustainability concept Ingenhoven has developed. We conducted a time-periodic analysis based on references that encompassed the process of his architectural concept’s time-periodic change. Our analysis of two datasets enabled us to infer the interrelation between the detailed characteristics of sustainability formed by time-period and to identify three general time-periodic conceptual approaches : Organic-functionalism, Bio-form, and Environmental Unity System-Based Architectural Typology. Our findings showed that these approaches are not applied independently, but function as a structure in which concepts were continually extended and linked via interation. The four components of the Supergreen concept – Holistic Approach and Responsibility, Healthy Environment, Green Urban, and Identity Establishment – are thought to serve as significant clues in tracing the methodological evolution of architectural applications.
