Klappentext
To ensure that future generations will still find a pleasant living space, climate-friendly construction is crucial. The design and choice of materials help to considerably reduce the environmental impact of climate change caused by buildings.This present description of vernacular building techniques from all climate zones provides architects with solutions from non-European and earlier societies for the planning of their building concepts. The low-tech approaches, illustrated in schematic drawings and explained in text, are a source of inspiration for the design of sustainable and energy-autonomous building structures.
Architecture Follows Climate provides the first in-depth and comprehensive overview of passive building techniques that have been tried and tested for centuries.
