Beschreibung
Climate-friendly construction is essential if we are to ensure that future generations can enjoy comfortable living spaces. Design and the choice of materials help to considerably reduce the climate impact of buildings.
The techniques featured in this book come from all five climatic zones and many are drawn from non-European and bygone societies. The low-tech approaches, illustrated in schematic drawings and explained in texts, are a source of inspiration for the design of sustainable and energy-autonomous building structures.
Architecture Follows Climate provides the first in-depth and comprehensive overview of passive building techniques that have been tried and tested for centuries.
- Traditional architectural techniques as a guide for low-tech planning
- The book’s structure is based on the earth’s five climatic zones
- Building solutions, spatial concepts, materials, structural physics, design elements, urban planning
