Energy performance feedback is an essential tool in addressing the current climate crisis.
However, Energy | People | Buildings - Making Sustainable Architecture Work is not simply another theoretical text about energy performance in buildings. This book is for anyone who wants to better understand how energy is used in buildings, and how to drive down operational energy use – whether you’re an architect, student, client, building services engineer, contractor, building operator or other stakeholder. Focusing on evidence from feedback on buildings in use, it explains what it takes to get them to perform as expected, as well as the reasons why they often fail.
Featured architects: AHMM, AHR, Architype, Hamson Barron Smith, Haworth Tompkins, Henning Larsen Architects and ZGF Architects.
Authors: Judit Kimpian, Hattie Hartman and Sofie Pelsmakers
