Summary:

"This book brings to light a diverse range of innovative architectural design studio methodologies formulated to educate future graduates to combat the climate crisis through carbon-neutral design. Award-winning professors detail tried-and-tested studio methodologies, outlining their philosophical rationale, the role of precedent study, design concept and professional partnerships, the approach to analytics and software design development, required readings, assignment and student work examples, and anticipated future innovation. Chapters are grouped under varying focal points including community empowerment, bioclimatic response, performance analytics, design build, and the urban scale, all adopting a holistic view of sustainable design that incorporates technical challenges as well as those of equity and social justice. This heterogenous compilation of strategies encourages wide accessibility to and acceptance by studio professors, as well as administrators and faculty developing architecture curricula. This will, in turn, maximize the impact on curtailing carbon emissions resulting from the construction and operations of our built environment"-- Provided by publisher.
