The book explores the slow progress of efficiency and sustainability in the construction industry compared to other economic sectors. It highlights the increasing attention from global, European, and national policies aimed at addressing these shortcomings through legal requirements and regulations, such as the Energy Saving Ordinance (EnEV), building certifications, and competitions. The focus is on the need for a more robust framework to promote sustainable practices in construction.
The first comprehensive reference work on energy-independent Active Houses The Active House is a logical development of existing building standards. It draws renewable energy from the sun and wind in order to cover energy needs as completely as possible. The basic ideas of the Active House are described in detail in this standard work and serve as a planning guide for all parties involved in the construction of Active Houses. From the principles of sustainable and energy efficient construction to planning tools and technical details, the reader learns what constitutes active houses, how they developed, and the components required for its construction. Active House architecture is illustrated by fourteen built works in the areas of residential, non-residential, new construction, and renovation.
La matérialité et la texture des bâtiments et des constructions revêtent un aspect important dans le projet architectural. Le traitement des matériaux et leur utilisation sont donc une composante essentielle de la formation d’un architecte.
