Aprašymas

In The Philosophy of Sustainable Design, McLennan outlines
the major ideas and issues that have emerged in the growing
movement of green architecture and sustainable design over
the last thirty years. This book is intended as a starting point
for anyone involved in the building industry on a journey to
learn how they can build more responsibly. The book is
rooted in practical knowledge but rather than being a ‘howto
book’ asks individuals to understand how the philosophy
of sustainable design can affect their own work. Part
Sustainable Design 101 and part manifesto this book lays the
groundwork and philosophical basis for more technical study.
McLennan relies on his extensive experience with sustainable
design having consulted to dozens of projects and design
teams all over the country. Tapping into the work of many
pioneers and ‘green design philosophers’ McLennan clearly
presents a framework for practitioners and students to understand sustainable design and how ultimately it will become the future of
architecture and design.
