Climates
This book is a collection of essays at the intersection of architecture and climate change. Which materials and conceptual infrastructures render climate legible, knowable, and actionable, and what are their spatial implications? Neither a collective lament nor an inventory of architectural responses, the essays consider cultural values ascribed to climate and ask how climate reflects our conception of what architecture is and does.
Climates also contains a dossier of precedents for thinking about architecture and climate change drawn from a number of leading practitioners. How do these interrelated questions offer new vantage points on the architectural ramifications of climate change at the interface of resiliency, sustain- ability, and ecotechnology? New approaches to understanding climate in architecture make this book invaluable.
