Sustainability
is to become the guiding principle of social action and economic
activity. At the same time, its ways and means are far from clear. As a
holistic praxis, sustainability must combine technical and material as
well as social, economic, ecological and also ethical strategies, which
have multiple complex interactions and all too often also conflicting
goals and priorities. In no other field can these be better observed,
addressed and influenced than in architecture and building.
"Building Better - Less - Different"
Each volume of "Building Better - Less - Different" details two
fundamental areas of sustainability and explores their specific dynamics
and interactions. After introductory overviews, innovative methods and
current developments are described and analysed in in-depth essays,
international case studies and pointed commentaries. The sustainability
criteria of efficiency ("better"), sufficiency ("less") and consistency
("different") form the framework for each book.
What the press say about the first volume
"Circular Construction and Circular Economy"
"The articles, case studies and commentaries in this book make a major
contribution to advancing the current discourse on implementing
circular-based economic models in the building sector." Hessian Chamber of Architects, book reviews
"To think of tomorrow when building today is the core message that Dirk
E. Hebel and Felix Heisel want to convey to their readers. ... And they
also show us how: with the help of relevant examples, grouped under the
headings 'better', 'less' and 'different', they demonstrate concrete
applications and argue that circular construction can also benefit the
construction industry..." architektur aktuell
Clean energy transition
It has long been common knowledge that energy and sustainability are
closely interlinked. And yet we are witnessing a profound shift in the
sector.
While the earlier focus was on improving energy
efficiency and increasing the proportion of renewable energy in
buildings, current energy conservation policies are supporting a
broader, more holistic view. This encompasses integral approaches in
which building design and construction measures form part of the energy
concept from the outset, as well as accounting for grey energy in
building materials and a holistic evaluation of buildings over their
entire life cycle.
For the energy-intensive and
emission-producing building sector, climate change presents an even
greater challenge than conserving resources. How can we contribute to a
shift in heating strategies and employ new technologies to achieve
climate-neutral heating? How can we respond to rising temperatures and
the risk of increased energy consumption for cooling? Can low-tech
concepts help to reduce the environmental impact of buildings over their
life cycle? Shouldn't we take greater account of the users of
buildings, and do we need completely different energy supply strategies?
Digital Transformation
At a time of
natural ubiquity of digital tools, widely adopted to streamline project
delivery in architecture, the foundations have been laid for a profound
transformation of the construction industry to address the climate
crisis.
Digital architectural design and construction methods
can be used as enabling technologies for a fundamental change towards a
circular construction approach with significantly reduced ecological and
climate impact.
This approach comprises a digital
reinterpretation of natural building materials through digital
construction technologies. Digital deconstruction and reuse strategies
can transform the existing building stock into resources for the future.
Mass customization of tailor-made building components minimizes
resource consumption. Architects, in their emerging role as
interdisciplinary interface and digital master builders, reunite design
and making through digital craft. Finally, the book provides a glimpse
into the potential future of construction, which might be characterized
by fundamentally different concepts of design and materialization of our
built environment, challenging current paradigms within our discipline.
- Architecture's contribution to sustainable development
- Professional competence in designing and acting in complex contexts
- Systematic, applicable, up-to-date

Droit de rétractation
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
-
for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
-
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
-
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
-
