Description

Improving the energy performance of existing housing is a vital step in reducing energy demand and addressing climate change. Street-by-Street Retrofit: A Future for Architecture offers a deep look into the art of retrofit as a path forward for modern building practices. This Routledge Research in Architecture volume moves beyond the limitations of pseudo-Modernist architecture to explore how we can transform our current built environment. The book focuses on domestic street-by-street retrofit, examining it through technical, financial, and societal lenses. It provides a holistic view of the various interacting factors that have historically slowed progress in this field. By analyzing these complex dimensions, the text provides a necessary perspective for those looking to understand the future of architectural practice and urban sustainability. This is an essential resource for students, professionals, and researchers interested in the evolution of architecture and the practical challenges of upgrading existing housing stock.
