Face à ces conséquences, un consensus se dégage progressivement pour réorienter le développement du bâti vers l'intérieur et pour favoriser les processus de densification urbaine. Le site de Waldstadt, sur lequel portent les travaux de recherche et d'enseignement présentés dans cet ouvrage, constitue un champ d'investigation particulièrement adapté à l'exploration de ces enjeux. Green Density présente six visions originales élaborées au sein du Laboratoire d'architecture et technologies durables (LAST) de l'Ecole polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL). Par une approche se situant à différentes échelles d'intervention - du projet urbain au détail constructif - elles visent à expérimenter diverses formes envisageables pour le développement d'un tel site.

Summary:
"Housing should be seen as a process, and not as a product." The book deals with the issue of sustainability in a planning context but also analyses a building's usage and ageing over its 'life cycle'. A system of criteria specially developed in an accompanying research project can be used to compare and evaluate buildings, and as a tool for optimising the sustainability of buildings in development during the planning process. By contrast, most existing sustainability systems are conceived not as design and planning tools, but as instruments for evaluating finished buildings and completed planning. 15 practical examples explain the ways in which these criteria and other aspects of sustainable building can be implemented in sophisticated architecture and how these can then be experienced.
