Description

Explore the connection between climate and the built environment with Climatic Architecture by Philippe Rahm architectes. Published by Actar, this work serves as a comprehensive monograph detailing the architectural, urbanistic, and landscape projects of the Swiss architect Philippe Rahm. It functions as both a theoretical treatise and a practical guide on the art of building atmospheres. As global warming presents new challenges, this book acts as a manifesto for a new type of climatic architecture. It revisits the historical foundations of design, looking back to the teachings of Vitruvius, Palladio, and Alberti. These classical thinkers recognized that exposure to wind, sun, temperature, and humidity should dictate the forms of cities and buildings. By studying these principles, Rahm offers a vision for how modern architecture and urbanism can better respond to environmental factors. This book is an essential resource for those studying meteorology, earth sciences, and the evolution of urban design in a changing world.
