Bioclimatic architecture (Architectural Design) (English and Spanish Edition)

This is a superbly illustrated book looking at the cutting edge of environmentally-responsible architecture. Bioclimatic design is a cutting edge architectural concept where the use of energy, water, and construction materials must be considered in relation to their impact on the environment - whilst remaining true to contemporary aesthetic ideals and design principles. "Bioclimatic Architecture" is a lavishly illustrated volume that looks at a wide range of bioclimatic projects and designs - from both established names well-practiced in sustainable architecture, and emerging talent - showing that form and function can go hand-in-hand with environmental responsibility.
