Описание: Sustainable Urban Forms: Theory, Design, and Application explores the latest research and practice regarding ways to design a more sustainable, livable world. It investigates the critical environmental problems that are created by modern cities and addresses the ecological concerns of urbanism. It also outlines creative design solutions through current viewpoints, proven strategies, and examples of good practices in the field.A blend of proven theory and carefully selected case studies from different geographical locations, the text provides an interdisciplinary, holistic overview of the subject matter. Readers will gain increased awareness of the critical environmental problems created by modern buildings and cities.Filled with outstanding graphics and visual information, Sustainable Urban Forms: Theory, Design, and Application effectively illustrates how environments can be designed to foster sustainable, livable urban communities. The book is designed for use in undergraduate courses on urban design, architecture, and environmental design. It can function as a main text, or as a companion reader in a design studio setting.
Описание: Evaluating building materials for environmental sustainability is a complex prospect. How do governmental agencies and the design industry actually measure sustainable initiatives and environmental impacts? This book breaks down the technical vocabulary and principles that define environmentally sustainable choices across interior and exterior architectural products to help the reader understand: * Material ingredient selection * Energy and water use * Emissions, including greenhouse gases * Human health and toxicity * Social accountability assessment This guide explains the structure of green certifications, standards and ecolabels, life cycle assessment, environmental regulations, and more. It presents a historic timeline for context and a snapshot of current trends and future objectives. It is a comprehensive reference for interior designers, architects, building owners, contractors, and students enrolled in interior design and architecture.

Описание: Sustainable Housing: A Systems-based Approach introduces students to the issues and processes that must be considered when developing sustainable housing, particularly housing that can approach net-zero energy performance.The book considers the history of American thinking as it relates to the environment and development. It addresses challenges in community development, particularly the need to develop affordable housing and how such housing can also be made sustainable. It examines the relationship between energy and housing, and the separate but important relationship between water resources and housing. Finally, it explains the basic concepts of building science.The material is rooted in a technological and systems-based approach. Thus, it examines how community systems, energy and water systems, and building systems work. For each of these systems, the book also identifies and evaluates the inherent technological component.Sustainable Housing is written for introductory courses in housing, community development, and building science.

Описание: Provides an in-depth analysis of design technologies for green building and highlights the smart automation technologies that help in energy conservation, along with various performance metrics that are necessary to facilitate a building to be known as a ""Green Smart Building"".
Well-being in a building depends on a number of factors. Visuals, ventilation, heat, cooling and acoustics are all key. Its efficiency relates not only to the design of a building; it can also be optimized and automated using the latest technologies and innovative environmentally friendly low-tech solutions.
To build upon and add to the successful Modern Construction Handbook, Andrew Watts details innovative and established examples of interior design in Modern Environmental Design. These are presented with the aid of texts, drawings, and 3D renderings.
