Krátky popis
Today, more than ever, architects must re-engage the forces of the
sun to respond to the profound challenges of global warming and
climate change. Towards Zero- Energy Architecture is a much needed
call for the design professions to redefine architecture to help
alleviate ecological problems. This book explores the theories,
practices and principles of new approaches to solar architecture
that foster both design excellence and low-energy use. Solar
architecture is more than the sum of passive strategies,
technological systems and ecological engineering. An architecture
shaped by the sun responds to climate, place and site, and
expresses an aesthetic based on the form-giving attributes of these
environmental forces. To illustrate this, the author analyses ten
awardwinning buildings from around the world, focusing on the
details of the design strategy, the impact of local climate and the
importance of seasonal changes in sunlight and wind strength. She
further shows how new technology enables architects to achieve
greater performance standards, while at the same time generating an
environmental aesthetic. As well as its significance to
architecture, this approach to building provides a critical means
of integrating sustainability in our daily lives.
