Environmental Engineering: Designing a Sustainable Future (Green Technology)
February 2nd, 2010. Published under Green Technology. No Comments.
Future Product Description Environmental engineering seems boundless, because it is based on the myriad ways in which nature solves its own engineering challenges. People have a system that pumps water 200 meter straight up to heaven in a system design that is quiet, requires no mechanical pumps, and never jams, but redwood trees do this every day. Environmental Engineering has a distance to the operations of nature to mimic, but fortunately, and natural beauty. . . More>>

The green house

Alanna Stang, Christopher Hawthorne, National Building Museum (U.S.)
From the arid deserts of Tucson, Arizona to the icy forests of Poori, Finland to the tropical beaches of New South Wales, Australia to the urban jungle of downtown Manhattan, critics Alanna Stang and Christopher Hawthorne have traveled to the farthest reaches of the globe to find all that is new in the design of sustainable, or “green,” homes. The result: more than thirty-five residences in fifteen countries — and nearly every conceivable natural environment — designed by a combination of star architects and heretofore unknown practitioners. Six different climactic zones are presented in The Green House — waterfront, forest and mountain, tropical, desert, suburban, and urban; there is also a section on mobile dwellings. Each chapter features a series of homes that show the diversity and possibility of sustainable design. Projects are presented with large color images, plans, drawings, and an accompanying text that describes their green features and explains how they work with and in the environment. Architects included: Santiago Calatrava, Shigeru Ban, Miller/Hull, Rick Joy, Lake Flato, Kengo Kuma, Glenn Murcutt, Pugh & Scarpa, Werner Sobek, and many others. The Green House is not only a beautiful object in its own right, but is sure to be an indispensable reference for anyone building or interested in sustainable design — and if you ask us, that should be everyone.
