Climate change is upsetting our relationship with nature and the environment, while artificial intelligence scenarios undermine the foundations of human life. As the pressure to re-align based on new modes of living and consuming increases, the first priority should be to address the way we imagine, design, produce and construct our built environment. The highly original book explores how the relation between design technology and material cultures can underpin and drive this change. It discusses the need for a new ?material balance? to develop our design practice, not only from an energy and environmental perspective, but also from a physiological, cultural and semantic one, in order to re-balance the impact of material design on society. This publication is an excellent guide to understanding in detail the theoretical framing of several crucial topics in material balance design, from computational knitting to material agency, and from new acoustic ecology to future façade technologies, bio-based design and ultimately non-anthropocentric habitats, offering insights into preferable future scenarios. 410 0$aPoliMI SpringerBriefs,$x2282-2585 606 $aEnergy policy 606 $aEnergy and state 606 $aTechnological innovations 606 $aTechnology$xSociological aspects 606 $aInformation technology 606 $aEnergy Policy, Economics and Management 606 $aInnovation and Technology Management 606 $aEnergy System Transformation 606 $aInformation and Communication Technologies (ICT) 615 0$aEnergy policy. 615 0$aEnergy and state. 615 0$aTechnological innovations. 615 0$aTechnology$xSociological aspects. 615 0$aInformation technology. 615 14$aEnergy Policy, Economics and Management. 615 24$aInnovation and Technology Management. 615 24$aEnergy System Transformation. 615 24$aInformation and Communication Technologies (ICT). 676 $a721.04 702 $aPaoletti$b Ingrid 702 $aNastri$b Massimiliano 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910863189803321 996 $aMaterial Balance$94166787 997 $aUNINA
