Sommario/riassunto

Welches ist die nachhaltigste Lösung für den Umgang mit Energie bei Gebäuden? Der von der Bauindustrie seit mehr als einem Jahrhundert verfolgte Weg heißt: Wärmedämmung durch Dämmsysteme. Eine zunehmend stärker werdende Gegenbewegung insbesondere unter Architekten vertritt die Meinung, dass die beste Lösung im intelligenten Entwerfen als der Kernkompetenz der Architektur zu suchen ist. Dieses faktengesättigte Buch schreibt die Geschichte der etablierten Wärmedämmtechnologien und liefert zugleich die Grundlagen für die sich heute abzeichnenden alternativen Lösungen. Über die wissenschaftlichen, materiellen und architektonischen Aspekte der



Wärmedämmung hinaus geht der Blick auf die Isolierung als eine zentrale und zugleich fragwürdige Kategorie des Umgangs mit Energie beim Bauen. Verfasst von einem Architekten, der neben detailliertem technischen Wissen auch über langjährige Erfahrungen in Forschung und Lehre an der Harvard University verfügt, zielt das Buch auf ein besseres Verständnis der unterschiedlichen Perspektiven auf das Thema Energie. Es öffnet den Blick auf eine thermodynamisch sinnvolle, ökologisch wirkungsvolle, kulturell bereichernde und architektonisch wegweisende Perspektive des Umgangs mit Energie in der Architektur.

What is the best way to consider energy in buildings? For over a century, the building industry has largely focused on ideas of insulation and isolation for its energetic practices. A growing movement of designers claim that other concepts and practices are required for the non-isolated energy systems of architecture. This book describes the history, theory and facts of the mainstream isolation technologies and the emerging alternative design approaches. It is a book on the scientific, material, and design history of building isolation; but more importantly, it is a book on isolated and non-isolated perspectives on energy in architecture. Written by a registered practicing architect with detailed technical knowledge, who is at the same time a researcher and experienced teacher, the aim is to understand the different scientific, architectural and cultural approaches to energy and to promote a non-isolated perspective: a thermodynamically accurate, ecologically powerful, culturally relevant, and architecturally ambitious perspective on energy in architecture.

Sommario/riassunto

Biocultural restoration is a process by which the various connections between humanity and nature, as well as between People and Place are revived to restore the health and function of social-ecological systems. This collection explores the subject of biocultural restoration and does so within the context of Hawaiʻi, the most remote archipelago on the planet. The Hawaiian Renaissance, which started in the 1970s, has led to a revival of Hawaiian language, practices, philosophy, spirituality, knowledge systems, and systems of resource management. Many of the leading Indigenous and local scholars of Hawaiʻi who were born into the time of the Hawaiian Renaissance contributed to this collection. More than a third of the authors are of Indigenous Hawaiian ancestry; each paper had at least one Indigenous Hawaiian author, and several papers had a Hawaiian lead author, making this the largest collection to date of scientific publications authored by Indigenous Hawaiians (Kānaka ʻŌiwi). In addition, the majority of authors are women, and two of the papers had 100 percent authorship by women. This collection represents a new emphasis in applied participatory research that involves academics, government agencies, communities and both private and non-profit sectors.
