The Sustainable Design Research Group (part of the Design Research Centre) is leading projects that connect design and designers with sustainability issues. Recent research projects have focused on:
- designing and manufacturing with recycled materials;
- building a 'sustainable materials' library for designers; and
- air quality and its impact on the health of building occupants.
The Real Estate Research Centre focuses on specialist areas related to the valuation, appraisal and management of property, including:

The researchers frequently use the context of either leisure or sustainable properties as the exemplar for their studies.
