Description
In the architecture world, sustainability has evolved from an optional feature into an urgent necessity. Now in paperback, this publication presents 25 building projects from around the world. Sustainability no longer refers just to the economy, resources, recyclable materials, renewable energy and eco-friendliness; its definition now extends to informed design at every turn, leveraging the characteristics of the location, local history and local traditions, fostering short supply chains and assessing the long-term impact that new constructions will have, both for the environment and for the health of the people.
THE PLAN is one of the most acclaimed architecture and design magazines on the market. A real working tool thanks to its in-depth texts and professional photographs, the many architect's drawings, plans and elevations and its strongly international approach, it has a wide readership in the architecture world including architects, designers, building and real estate professionals as well as university lecturers and students.
