Energy Accounts: Architectural Representations of Energy, Climate, and the Future

Editat de Dan Willis, William Braham, Katsuhiko Muramoto, Daniel Barber
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 29 iun 2016
How does one tell the story of energy production, use, or conservation in a manner sufficiently convincing to influence policy, behavior, and design? Energy Accounts explores potential answers to this question through compelling images, data visualizations, narratives, and other examples of accounting for energy. Organized into a collection containing both examples of best practices and critiques, this impressive array of projects and contributors combines text and graphic material to explore different representations of energy data. Including work from Kieran Timberlake, SHoP, AMO, Lateral Office, WOHA, and many more, the book boasts a unique graphic design which supports and enhances its role as a valuable resource for professionals and students in architecture, engineering, and urban design.

Recenzii

"In a culture of images, visual narratives are as important as arguments. Architects think with their eyes, and the authors of Energy Accounts are phenomenally qualified to present academic research and professional experiences on energy and climate with graphic eloquence. The contemporary dilemmas faced by buildings, cities and regions are comprehensively covered, and the book offers a pixellated portrait of the field which should influence both design and policy." - Luis Fernández-Galiano, Int FRIBA, is a Professor of Architecture, Universidad Politécnica de Madrid
“The book offers an abundance of forward-thinking scholarship on many important issues. From big data to architecture to economics, there is a lot going on here of contemporary relevance to disciplines across the sciences and humanities. The overarching topics, energy and climate, are timely, as are the multitude of interdisciplinary perspectives offered by the dozens of authors who contributed to the 32 essays. Key to the project are the visual aids: diagrams, graphs, charts, maps, photographs, figures, and data visualizations are interspersed throughout the essays. The images are not peripheral to the discussion: the authors use visual representations to tell their respective stories about energy and climate ... Both implicitly and explicitly, the volume makes a strong and convincing case for the value of visualizations in scholarly works. Highly recommended.” - P. Gamsby, Memorial University, Choice Magazine, July 2017
