Summary:
Ensuring that buildings are healthy and comfortable for their occupants is a primary concern of all architects and building engineers. This highly practical handbook will help make that process more efficient and effective. It begins with a guide to how the human body and senses react to different indoor environmental conditions, together with basic information on the parameters of the indoor environment and problems that can occur. It then moves on to give a background to the development of the study and control of the indoor environment, examining the main considerations (including thermal, lighting, indoor air and sound-related aspects) for a healthy and comfortable indoor environment and discussing the drivers for change in the field. The final section presents a new approach towards health and comfort in the indoor environment, where meeting the wishes and demands of the occupants with a holistic strategy becomes the over-riding priority. The book is filled with useful facts, figures and analysis, and practical methods that designers who are keen to assess and improve the user experience of their buildings will find invaluable.

Summary:
In today's changing world, architects and engineers must address issues of sustainability when designing buildings, homes and urban developments. Through groundbreaking architecture, innovative urban planning and social engagement, the awareness of how sustainable architecture can make an environmental impact are becoming increasingly grounded in public consciousness. Like its successful predecessor, Architecture of Change: Edition 2010 presents an unrivaled collection of the most innovative architecture projects that make a considerable contribution to a brighter future. Over forty exemplary projects by internationally renowned architecture practices such as Pritzker Architecture Prize winners Renzo Piano and OMA founder Rem Koolhaas are profiled with the newly built California Academy of Sciences and the master plan for a wind farm in the North Sea. From a zero emission ice station facility in Antarctica to the High Line public promenade in Manhattan, the book represents a broad range of environmentally mindful concepts that are not only outstanding in their architectural form but are also devoted to regional environmental and social conditions as well as their global impact.

Summary:
A celles et ceux qui pensent que le solaire est une solution individuelle d'avenir, ce livre donne toutes les explications pour passer à la pratique de façon simple. Quatre grandes thématiques de l'énergie solaire sont traitées ici : Le chauffage de l'eau sanitaire par énergie solaire; La cuisson solaire des aliments; Le séchage solaire des fruits et légumes; L'électricité photovoltaïque indépendante du réseau. Pour chacune de ces approches, trois bricolages d'une complexité croissante sont proposés sous la forme de "pas à pas" clairement expliqués et illustrés de nombreux schémas techniques, photos pratiques et dessins humoristiques. Cet ouvrage n'a pas vocation à être exhaustif quant à toutes les possibilités de l'énergie solaire. Il vise surtout à présenter des applications utiles et éprouvées, faciles à mettre en oeuvre chez soi par soi-même, au moindre coût.
