Architecture and Technology Volume II - Cities in Climate Crisis

Biomaterials, sustainable building practices, greening cities, policy changes, and spatial energy sourcing are just some of the many topics this publication explores. While its underlying theme is the preoccupation with the current climate crisis, which is undoubtedly the most pressing global issue, it also reflects an impulse to take action and imagine feasible solutions. The second instalment of the series, this comprehensive manual for students and professionals alike brings together a diverse collection of 55 lectures given at the Norman Foster Foundation between 2021 and 2023 by leading voices in the fields of sustainability, architecture, urbanism, energy, art, and mobility.
