Le climat est en train de changer, tout comme l'architecture domestique. Les matériaux nobles (brique, pierre, bois) et leur conception intemporelle étaient la clé de la construction d'habitations de plusieurs générations. Mais une planète en réchauffement, associée à des phénomènes météorologiques violents, a changé l’équation et augmenté les enjeux, parfois à la lettre. Destiné aux propriétaires, aux architectes et aux constructeurs, ce livre présente seize maisons innovantes qui représentent le meilleur des pratiques résidentielles dans quatre catégories - terre, vent, feu et eau -, ainsi qu'une liste de ressources d'organisations telles que la FEMA et la National Fire Protection Agency. Peu de codes du bâtiment locaux offrent une protection adéquate contre les forces du réchauffement planétaire, qui vont proliférer au cours de ce siècle. Ces exemples illustrent l’importance de la conception des maisons de niveau supérieur pour aider à résister au changement climatique, le problème le plus urgent de notre époque.

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. The climate is changing, and so must domestic architecture. Premium materials - brick, stone, wood - and timeless design used to be the key to building homes that would last for generations. But a warming planet, coupled with severe weather events, has changed the equation and raised the stakes, sometimes literally. Aimed at homeowners, architects, and builders, this book presents sixteen innovative homes that represent the best of resilient-home practices in four categories - earth, wind, fire, and water - plus a list of resources from organizations such as FEMA and the National Fire Protection Agency. Few local building codes provide adequate protection from the forces of global warming, which will proliferate in this century. These examples illustrate the importance of next-level home design to help resist climate change - the most urgent issue of our time. AUTHOR: Boyce Thompson is the author of Anatomy of a Great Home and The New New Home. The former editor of Builder magazine and founding editor of Residential Architect magazine, Thompson has spent more than 30 years writing about home design and construction.
