Description

Product Description Here is a guide to innovative architectural design for those working with biophilic and bioclimatic architectural concepts. It develops an architectural strategy, which integrates the concepts of passive and low-energy buildings, biophilia and human comfort. From the Back Cover The concept of biophilic and bioclimatic architecture represents one of the most promising ideas in sustainable building. Together with its consideration of ecologically harmless materials and use of renewable energy sources, it brings an enormous quality increase in planning and workmanship, as well as an improvement in inhabitants’ comfort. This valuable concept merits a dedicated discussion. Biophilic and Bioclimatic Architecture outlines a new movement that aims to create environmentally-friendly, energy-efficient buildings and developments by effectively managing natural resources. The book has three parts: Part I focuses on the impact of human needs on the creation process and assesses the concept of value in architectural hypotheses. Part II opens the way to a new understanding of biophilic architecture as a response to destructive human activities and also considers the side effects of using natural resources. Part III shows the significant benefits of making the connection between climate and comfort that can be achieved through bioclimatic architecture. Biophilic and Bioclimatic Architecture will enable architects, engineers and other specialists to develop innovative, sustainable architectural designs. About the Author Dr. Arch Amjad Almusaed holds a PhD degree in Architecture (Environmental Design) from “Ion Mincu” University, Bucharest, Romania. Dr. Al-musaed has 20 years’ experience in passive, bioclimatic, and biophilic architecture with innovative orientation of architectural science. He has carried out a great deal of research and technical survey work, and has performed several studies, in the above areas. He is an active member of many international architectural associations, such as the International Union of Architects, Green Roofs International, Passive and Low Energy Architecture, The City and Ecology, and ISR.
