Description

Sustainable design requires practitioners to respond to specific social, cultural, and environmental conditions. This book by Routledge provides a set of strategies for understanding the complexities found within regional settings. By studying a series of international case studies, readers can see how architects and designers apply different tactics to reach design solutions that are both culturally and environmentally appropriate. This text explores how architecture and design are linked to social and environmental processes. It moves beyond seeing design as just a technical or aesthetic task, looking instead at the broader context of how buildings exist within their surroundings. It is an essential resource for those studying the relationship between regional identity and the built environment.
