Da inzwischen klar ist, dass uns viele Rohstoffe zukünftig nur noch begrenzt zur Verfügung stehen werden, wird seit einiger Zeit intensiv an Alternativen geforscht: Nachhaltigkeit ist das Gebot der Stunde und für Politik wie Industrie das Zauberwort für eine bessere Zukunft. Zudem ist das Bewusstsein für einen umweltverträglichen Umgang mit Werkstoffen und das Denken in Materialkreisläufen beim Konsumenten angekommen: Die Verwendung umweltverträglicher Materialien und Produktionsverfahren wird vom Kunden gewünscht, ja gar vorausgesetzt. Designern und Architekten kommt somit eine besondere Rolle und Verantwortung zu. Denn sie sind es, die bei ihren Projekten die Auswahl über die eingesetzten Werkstoffe treffen und damit entscheidenden Einfluss auf die Nachhaltigkeit unserer Produktwelt nehmen. Gleichzeitig haben wir es mit einer Flut neuer Materialien zu tun, was besondere Kenntnisse in Bezug auf ihre Eigenschaften, den möglichen Einsatz und ihre Verarbeitung erfordert. Materialrevolution schlägt hier die Brücke von Forschung und Industrie zu den Designern und Architekten, indem es einen systematischen Überblick über die derzeit verfügbaren nachhaltigen Materialien bietet und alle relevanten Information liefert, um die Eignung und das Potential eines neuen Materials für das eigene Projekt zu beurteilen. Dabei werden sowohl natürliche und biologisch abbaubare Materialien beleuchtet, als auch Werkstoffe mit multifunktionalen Eigenschaften und Potenzialen zur Verringerung des Energieeinsatzes vorgestellt. Since it is now clear that in the future many raw materials will only be available to us in limited quantities, scientists have for some time been conducting intensive research into possible alternatives. Sustainability is the order of the day and the magic word for a better future in politics and industry. Moreover, environmental consciousness and a penchant for thinking in terms of material cycles have caught on with consumers: the use of environmentally compatible materials and production methods is desired, even taken for granted by the client. Designers and architects thus have a special role and responsibility. For they are the ones who decide what materials will be used on their projects and thus wield enormous influence on the sustainability of our product world. At the same time, we are dealing with a flood of new materials, which calls for specialized knowledge of their properties, their possible use, and their handling. Material Revolution bridges the gap between research and industry on the one hand and designers and architects on the other by offering a systematic overview of the currently available sustainable materials and providing the reader with all the information he or she needs to assess a new material's suitability and potential for a given project. Along the way, it examines natural and biodegradable materials, while also presenting materials with multifunctional properties and the potential for diminishing energy requirements.

These days, whether you're designing a building or a toaster, a savvy knowledge of materials is increasingly critical. And keeping up with the constant flow of new materials, let alone their applications, properties, and sources, is an increasingly difficult and time-consuming task. Blaine Erickson Brownell, author of Transmaterial, known to thousands of web users for his "product of the week" email service alerting designers to new materials that are reshaping our world, has created this handy and affordable reference to the most interesting and most useful new materials now available. Transmaterial is indexed in multiple ways for the sake of maximum convenience, and utilizes the new CSI Master- Format 2004 product categorization system. With more than 200 materials, organized by category, described, pictured, and annotated with technical and sourcing information, this catalog is an essential tool for any architect or designer interested in keeping up with the rapid developments in the field of materials, looking for a source of inspiration for their designs, or just eager to get their hands on real materials in an effort to understand the incredibly innova-tive palette now available to us.

Nanotechnologie gilt als eine der Schlüsseltechnologien des 21. Jahrhunderts mit stark wachsender wirtschaftlicher Bedeutung. In Architektur und Bauwesen liegen ihre heute nutzbaren Potenziale besonders in der Beschichtung von Oberflächen, die diesen funktionale Eigenschaften wie erhöhte Bruchfestigkeit, Fähigkeit zur Selbstreinigung, Feuerresistenz etc. verleiht. Auf Nanomaterialien basierende Zusatzstoffe machen gängige Materialien leichter, durchlässiger oder verschleißfester. Nicht nur für Fassaden und Dächer sind Nanomaterialien von großem Interesse, sondern sie bereichern auch die Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten von Innen- und Außenräumen. Nano-Dämmmaterialien eröffnen ökologisch ausgerichteten Architekten neue Potenziale.Architekten, Innenarchitekten und Designer finden in diesem Buch eine auf ihre Belange zugeschnittene Einführung in den naturwissenschaftlichen Hintergrund, eine kritische Diskussion der Vorzüge und Grenzen dieser Technologie und vor allem eine umfassende, mit zahlreichen internationalen Projektbeispielen belegte Darstellung von 16 bau- und designrelevanten Eigenschaften und Funktionen von Nanomaterialien. Nobelpreisträger Harold Kroto trug ein Vorwort bei.Dipl.-Ing. Innenarchitektin BDIA Sylvia Leydecker ist praktizierende Innenarchitektin mit dem eigenen Büro "100% interior" in Köln. Sie vertritt den BDIA in der Architektenkammer NRW, ist Dozentin bei mehreren Architektenkammer-Akademien, Mitglied im Kompetenzzentrum Nanotechnologie CC-NanoChem und im Institute of Nantechnology IoN, Schottland. Zahlreiche Vorträge und Zeitschriftenpublikationen über das Thema Nanotechnologie in Architektur, Innenarchitektur und Design. Nanotechnology is widely regarded as one of the twenty-first century's key technologies, and its economic importance is sharply on the rise. In architecture and the construction industry it has potentials that are already usable today, especially the coating of surfaces to lend them functional characteristics such as increased tensile strength, self-cleaning capacity, fire resistance, and others. Additives based on nanomaterials make common materials lighter, more permeable, and more resistant to wear. Nanomaterials are not only extremely useful for roofs and facades; they also expand design possibilities for interior and exterior rooms and spaces. Nano-insulating materials open up new possibilities for ecologically oriented architects.In this book, with a foreword by nobel prize winner Harold Kroto, architects, interior designers and designers will find an introduction to the scientific background specifically tailored to their needs, a critical discussion of the advantages and limits of the technology, and above all a comprehensive presentation of sixteen characteristics and functions of nanomaterials that are specially relevant for building and design, illustrated by numerous international project examples.Dipl.-Ing. interior designer BDIA Sylvia Leydecker is a practicing interior designer with her own firm in Cologne, 100% Interior. She represents the BDIA (Bund Deutscher Innenarchitekten, or Union of German Interior Architects/Designers) on the Architektenkammer Nordrhein-Westfalen (Chamber of Architects of North Rhine-Westphalia), serves as an instructor for a number of Architektenkammer academies, and is a member of the Kompetenzzentrum Nanotechnologie CC-NanoChem (Competence Center for Chemical Nanotechnology, or CC-NanoChem) and the Institute of Nanotechnology, or IoN, in Scotland. Numerous lectures and journal publications on the subject of nanotechnology in architecture, interior design, and design.
