Descrição

In an innovative exploration of architectural history, Barnabas Calder delves into the intricate relationship between structures and energy consumption throughout time. From the earliest prehistoric dwellings to modern responses to the climate emergency, he examines how buildings have evolved alongside humanity's understanding of energy use and sustainability. This narrative not only highlights the changing styles and techniques of architecture but also reflects on how these developments have often mirrored society's values and technological advancements.

Calder invites readers to consider the pressing issue of climate change in a new light, suggesting that architecture holds the potential for shaping a sustainable future. By bridging the gap between historical practices and contemporary challenges, he offers a compelling vision of how the principles of design can adapt to foster resilience and sustainability. The book serves as both a resource for architects and a thought-provoking read for anyone interested in the interplay of environmental concerns and the built environment.
