The Architecture of Waste

Editat de Caroline O'Donnell, Dillon Pranger
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 17 noi 2020
Global material crises are imminent. In the very near future, recycling will no longer be a choice made by those concerned about the environment, but a necessity for all. This means a paradigm shift in domestic behavior, manufacturing, construction, and design is inevitable. The Architecture of Waste provides a hopeful outlook through examining current recycling practices, rethinking initial manufacturing techniques, and proposing design solutions for second lives of material-objects.
The book touches on a variety of inescapable issues beyond our global waste crisis including cultural psyches, politics, economics, manufacturing, marketing, and material science. A series of crucial perspectives from experts cover these topics and frames the research by providing a past, present, and future look at how we got here and where we go next: the historical, the material, and the design. Twelve design proposals look beyond the simple application of recycled and waste materials in architecture--an admirable endeavor but one that does not engage the urgent reality of a circular economy--by aiming to transform familiar, yet flawed, material-objects into closed-loop resources.
Complete with over 150 color images and written for both professionals and students, The Architecture of Wasteis a necessary reference for rethinking the traditional role of the architect and challenging the discipline to address urgent material issues within the larger design process.
