This illustrated book gives a comprehensive view of _ contemporary
ideas, innovations and emerging attitudes to sustainability that
emanated from the MIT symposium. 16 leading contributors with
demonstrable track records in architectural practice, engineering
and academia give their insights into the way we need to think
about architecture in the future in order to work with the
environment - instead of against it. Supported by details that
relate to specific design or research projects, they clearly
suggest a variety of potential directions fo follow to bring
environmentalism into the mainstream of architectural discourse.
The edited summary of twelve key presentations at an International
Design Symposium held at MIT. This book presents an important
collection of contributions from key designers with a track record
in the field of environmentally conscious buildings. Their
contributions respond to a need for a more holistic view on
environmentalism, focusing on cultural and social levels as well as
technical issues to broaden the debate on sustainable architecture.
This book will appeal to a wide range of professionals in the built
environment, increasingly concerned with sustainable design.
