Design Ideas offers students a variety of different ways to go
about finding a design solution. In addition to suggesting
fundamental ways to get the creative process moving and develop a
design approach, it also proposes various sources of inspiration
for design ideas. It focuses on the three elements of place, form,
and function, which can sometimes constitute immediate springboards
for concrete designs. These elements must eventually be
incorporated as the design process. Subjects: Creativity in the
design process; Sources of inspiration and design approaches;
Working with place; Working with form; Working with function.

What makes building materials sustainable? How can we reduce how
much "grey energy" is produced in the building process? And how
does a Life Cycle Analysis work? These are questions which are
becoming increasingly more common in the context of sustainable
construction. The DETAIL Green Book Sustainable construction
techniques offers a thorough guide to ecological building design
and sustainable construction methods, which will be particularly
valuable for architects. The authors provide an overview of the
most relevant databases and certification standards for building
products and illustrate how a Life Cycle Analysis is conducted.
They also identify key ways of optimising the planning process in
line with ecological criteria, while offering advice for the
selection of building materials and elements. Detailed
documentation from five buildings constructed in Europe and North
America serve to illustrate the associated assessment processes in
this book.
