This book guides architecture students to create sustainable designs that reflect the urgent need for action, tackling the quadruple challenges of the climate emergency: adapting to a changing climate, climate change mitigation, creating a positive and restorative design, and improving climate justice locally and globally. It provides step-by-step guidance, preparing students for architecture practice, with unique features such as key recommendation checklists, measurements against the UN Sustainable Development Goals, readings, case studies, student examples, notes, and an extensive glossary. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 292 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 01 June 2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: RIBA Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eClimate change is not a distant phenomenon; it is an ongoing reality that demands immediate action. We are currently facing a climate emergency, a pressing global challenge that requires the involvement of architects and a deep understanding of the impact of local decisions on the broader global scale.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book is designed to guide architecture students toward creating truly sustainable designs that reflect the urgency of the climate emergency. It addresses the four interconnected challenges posed by the climate crisis: adapting to a changing climate, mitigating climate change, fostering positive and restorative design, and promoting climate justice both locally and globally.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough a comprehensive exploration of 10 key themes, this book aims to equip architecture students with the knowledge and skills necessary to integrate high values from all areas of sustainable architecture into their design projects. The book is structured around the different stages of the design process, with five illustrated chapters that highlight the considerations and considerations to be made at each stage. It provides step-by-step guidance, equipping students with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in architecture practice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUnique features of this book include key recommendation checklists, measurements against the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, readings, case studies, student examples, notes, and an extensive glossary. These resources will enhance students' understanding of sustainable architecture and inspire them to build a sustainable future.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy embracing the principles and practices outlined in this book, architecture students can become agents of change and contribute to the creation of a more resilient and sustainable world. Let us join hands in this critical endeavor and work towards a brighter and more sustainable tomorrow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 912g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 211 x 249 x 24 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781859469644\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sofie Pelsmakers,Elizabeth Donovan,Aidan Hoggard,Urszula Kozminska","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44102144164090,"sku":"9781859469644","price":33.32,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1656068387017_book.jpg?v=1656162814","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/designing-for-the-climate-emergency-a-guide-for-architecture-students-9781859469644","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
