This book gives an overview of the latest academic developments in increasing the smartness and sustainability of our cities and buildings. Aspects such as inclusivity, smart cities, place and space, the resilient city, urbanity and urban ecology are prominently featured in the design and planning part of the book; while energy, educational buildings, comfort, building design, construction and performance form the sub-themes of the technical part of the book. This book will appeal to urban designers, architects, urban planners, smart city designers and sustainable building experts.

Download or read book Towards an Architecture of Self-reliance. Developing and Testing a Support Tool for Inhabitants and Practitioners in Mt. Elgon, Kenya written by Michiel Smits and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research project focuses on how decisions made by practitioners, articulating rural housing in Sub-Sahara Africa, contribute to the decreasing level of self-reliance inhabitants have regarding their housing. Multiple case studies on Mt. Elgon proved that inhabitants have a significantly higher self-reliance level, comparing traditional to modern housing. To study this phenomenon in practice and to articulate suitable design support the Design Research Methodology was chosen. The research clarification pinpointed inhabitant capacities as the key-contributor to self-reliant housing. Household survey outcomes proved that large numbers of rural inhabitant?s desire housing which they have insufficient capacities for. Indicating that the inhabitants experience a disparity between existing and desired housing capacities, moreover an inability to bridge this disparity independently, and consequently require external help. 0Architect seemed most appropriate to offer this help as it consist of sociocultural, engineering and design tasks. Architects are not trained in inhabitant capacity evaluation and as no suitable design tools existed, this research project developed the required design support, its application requirements and the impact measurements. These were then tested in a pilot project on Mt. Elgon. The findings were used to evaluate the support?s impact and suitability. The support tool users found it suitable to assess and integrate inhabitant capacities into housing solutions. The impact shows that the support group families have sustained their family?s level of self-reliance unlike the control group. The developed technological design, with modifications, could be used not only in rural Kenyan communities, but also help others around the continent.

Download or read book Crisis in the Built Environment written by Jamel Akbar and published by İnsan Yayınları. This book was released on 2021-07-05 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Is it not time to search for paradigms beyond capitalism and socialism? The book argues that interactions between the claims of “ownership”, “control” and “use” can elucidate crisis in our environments through measuring responsibilities. Levels of responsibility created by propeties’ and individuals’ rights developed by societal systems, shape our attitudes and actions in most realms of urban life such as utilization, maintenance, investments, etc. In this edition, further arguments were added such as the impossibility of achieving sustainability and justice within socialism or capitalism. In a letter of recommendation to Jamel Akbar, John Habraken, former chairman of the Department of Architecture at MIT stated: “I do not believe in all my years of teaching to have met another student who matched the combination of research skills and the ability for theoretical constructs that he brought with him to MIT.” Reviews of the first edition “Jamel Akbar has published an important contribution to the urban way of life in Muslim cities, as well as formulating and illustrating a research method for the study of architecture and urbanism in other societies and regions around the World.” Professor Roderich Lawrence, Open House International “This is an impressive work. Much has already been written about Islamic culture and urbanism but rarely has any study been as scholarly. …The significance of Akbar’s work lies in a vision of better awareness of the settlement process. In this sense, it is a major and definitive book.” Professor David Cosling, RIBA JOURNAL"
