BOOK OF THE MONTH from Architectural Press

Sustainability at the Cutting Edge, by Peter Smith

  • Introduces the very latest in practical sustainability techniques
  • First point of reference for all architects and engineers who want their designs to be both responsive and cutting edge
  • Useful diagrams, graphs and photographs illustrate the diverse technologies being developed to create optimum eco-efficiency in our built environment.

‘Sustainability at the Cutting Edge’ is an essential guide to understanding the future direction of sustainable technology. This fully updated new edition deals not only with current best practice and state-of-the-art case studies, but with the very latest emerging technologies which will transform the relationship between buildings and energy.

This immensely practical book is packed with useful diagrams, charts and colour photographs to illustrate a variety of the most recent case studies, including the education building, the Core, at the Eden Project in Cornwall.

'An absorbing study of the technology available for low energy buildings.'
