This fully updated Third Edition covers principles of designing buildings that use the sun for heating, wind for cooling, and daylight for natural lighting. Using hundreds of illustrations, this book offers practical strategies that give the designer the tools they need to make energy efficient buildings

"Architecture can enhance our lives if you include ecological processes in your design from the beginning. As an ecological architect, you can offer diverse spaces to inhabitat by connecting your buildings to ecosystems the size of neighborhoods and regions and by making natural systems central to your design. Your ecological architecture would provide urban environments that are dramatically productive and that can contain both human-driven needs and nature's needs in increasingly dense settings. Author Brook Muller understands that your design tendencies influence your working methods and impact the "greeness" of your buildings, so Ecology and the Architectural Imagination explains design strategies and emphasizes the importance of your poetic judgement when you're dealing with complex and dynamic ecological systems. Muller also speculates architectural possibilities when ecology is embedded in the design process from conceptual phases onward, how these impact the architect's role, and how ecosystems can inspire architectural space making and order. The goal is to empower you with ecological literacy, critical thinking, and collaboration skills so that you can remake our cities"--

"Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Recover!" ist heute die Leitlinie für nachhaltiges Bauen, die an die Stelle der Wegwerfmentalität der industriellen Moderne getreten ist. Das Autorenteam von der ETH Zürich und dem Future Cities Laboratory in Singapur gibt hier erstmals einen systematischen Überblick über die aus Abfall als erneuerbarem Rohstoff produzierten Baumaterialien und -elemente und über ihre Anwendung in Architektur, Innenraumgestaltung und Produktdesign. Die Bandbreite der dargestellten Baustoffe reicht von marktgängigen Produkten, wie Fassadepaneele aus Stroh oder selbstheilender Beton, bis hin zu Neuentwicklungen wie Holzbauelemente aus Zeitungspapier oder Isolierfasern aus Jeansdenim. Die Produkte werden auch in ihren Anwendung in gebauten oder prototypischen Projekten gezeigt. Das zugrunde liegende Konzept, Materialien in zusätzliche Lebenszyklen in der gebauten Umwelt zu überführen, geht über bloßes Recycling weit hinaus und umfasst fünf Gruppen von Produkten entsprechend ihrer Herstellungs- und Wirkungsweise: Verdichtung, physische Verwandlung, chemische Verwandlung, multifunktionale Gestaltung und biologisch-chemische Wachstumsprozesse. In einem weiteren Zugang werden die Produkte und Projekte nach ihren Einsatzmöglichkeiten im Tragwerk, als selbsttragende Elemente, für Wärmedämmung und Feuchteschutz sowie im Ausbau gegliedert und dargestellt. "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, and Recover" is the sustainable guideline that has replaced the "Take, Make, Waste" attitude of the industrial age. Based on their background at the ETH Zurich and the Future Cities Laboratory in Singapore, the authors provide both a conceptual and practical look into materials and products which use waste as a renewable resource. This book introduces an inventory of current projects and building elements, ranging from marketed products, among them façade panels made of straw and self-healing concrete, to advanced research and development like newspaper, wood or jeans denim used as isolating fibres. Going beyond the mere recycling aspect of reused materials, it looks into innovative concepts of how materials usually regarded as waste can be processed into new construction elements. The products are organized along the manufacturing processes: densified, reconfigured, transformed, designed and cultivated materials. A product directory presents all materials and projects in this book according to their functional uses in construction: load-bearing, self-supporting, insulating, waterproofing and finishing products.

Cet ouvrage retrace l'histoire du projet et de la construction du nouveau siège européen à Louvain-la-Neuve. AGC Glass Building est, en 2013, l'un des plus grands immeubles de bureaux à énergie quasi nulle de Belgique et obtint au cours de la phase de projet le certificat BREAAM " excellent ". Le présent ouvrage d'architecture se veut avant tout un ouvrage technique et scientifique de référence. L'ensemble des croquis de projets, des dessins techniques, des photos de chantier et la série de photos de la photographe bruxelloise Marie-Françoise Plissart illustrent tous les aspects essentiels à la réalisation d'un immeuble de bureaux durable. Philippe Samyn, architecte et ingénieur, designer principal avec Bernard Van Damme et Ghislain André, a collaboré avec Jan De Coninck, ingénieur et architecte, pour la réalisation de ce livre.
