Greg Keeffe is an academic and urban designer with over 30 years of experience in sustainability, energy use, and its impact on the design of built form and urban space. He is a professor of architecture and urbanism at Queens University, School of Architecture, Belfast, UK. Previously he held the prestigious Downing Chair of Sustainable Architecture at the Leeds School of Architecture. Greg has extensive experience working closely with architects and planners to develop exciting ways of re-invigorating the city through the application of innovative sustainable technologies, informing his work on the sustainable city as a synergistic super-organism. In this way, he has sought to develop a series of theoretical hypotheses about our future existence on the planet, through a series of technological and spatial interventions. Most of his work comes out of a free-thinking open-ended discussion about how things should be.
