Although access to water resources is an issue of global concern, arid climates are where necessity begets inventions that may serve as examples for action or prevention across a multitude of climate zones and geographies. In facing the prevalence of water scarcity across the globe, due to a mix of climatological and man-made factors, the question we must ask ourselves today is Water for What? Which approaches can landscape, urban and architectural designers take in order to apply their specific professional skills and means? What potential do available technologies and materials offer, and what methods and tools can be derived from social engagement? Based on five years of research, the preparation of and feedback on a traveling exhibition, as well as a major conference, the results of the Out of Water project are laid out here in a series of case studies and essays by international experts, including analytical drawings of both projected and implemented solutions. 330 $aZunehmend sind wir damit konfrontiert, dass Wasser ein sehr knappes Gut ist, insbesondere in Gebieten mit trockenem Klima. Der Mangel an Wasser verlangt nach präventiven oder kompensatorischen Lösungen, die Vorbildcharakter haben können. Wasser wofür? Dies muss die Leitfrage sein, um auf die Folgen von Klimawandel und menschlicher Intervention zu reagieren.Mit welchen Strategien können die besonderen Kompetenzen von Landschaftsarchitektur, Urbanismus und Architektur für diese komplexen Probleme aktiviert werden? Welche Technologien und Materialien stehen zur Verfügung? Welche Methoden und Werkzeuge können eingesetzt werden? Welche Rolle kann soziales Engagement spielen? In der Folge mehrjähriger Forschungen, einer wandernden Ausstellung und einer internationalen Konferenz werden die Probleme und vielseitigen Lösungen hier von Experten aus den relevanten Disziplinen dargestellt. Die Dokumentation der Entwurfslösungen und die Visualisierungen der Analysen erfolgen mit eigens für dieses Buch angefertigten Zeichnungen. 606 $aWater conservation$vCase studies 615 0$aWater conservation 676 $a333.91/16 700 $aMargolis$b Liat$01723531 702 $aChaouni$b Aziza 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910815639903321 996 $aOut of water$94124879 997 $aUNINA
