Sustainability in Scandinavia : _Architectural Design and Planning
In this book, essential aspects of sustainability in architecture and planning are approached from many diverse perspectives that exemplify the breadth and depth of explorations underway in Scandinavia today. The collection of writings is based on six years of visits made to these three Scandinavian countries, and sustained engagements with the schools of architecture in the capital cities. The presentation of these perspectives is intended to illuminate lessons being learned by architects in Scandinavia, and to expand the influence of these ideas to a global audience.The main drivers of sustainability are highlighted through case studies that cover all scales from planning and infrastructure to buildings and components. The cases treat broad themes such as global, regional, political, and cultural, and give each their specifically architectural significance. More acutely architectural topics such as adaptability, holistic thinking, and architectural education/tradition further permeate the cases. At the same time, the cases exemplify the best practices of sustainable architecture in Scandinavia including housing, offices, and cultural buildings, and urban development. ; QC 20191129
