Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - For centuries, dealing with cold has been the dominant climatic factor for architectural design in Central Europe. The climate change apparent now assigns this role to heat. Architecture and urban design strive for efficient, resource-saving technical solutions to meet the changing climatic conditions and the energy standards they demand without really questioning customary notions of comfort, forms of living, and urban coexistence. Yet architects must increasingly search for experimental approaches and new ways in which we can live together well in a rapidly warming climate, in particular in cities and metropolitan regions. Despite a supposed powerlessness in the face of the impending climate catastrophe, the contributions collected in this volume offer a diverse range of narratives that tell of experiences, observations, and the needs of people that inhabit hotter worlds, both real and imagined. What role as climate producers can architecture and the city play in shaping our habitat if these important issues are understood not only in purely technological but also in cultural and social terms ; Bisher war der Umgang mit Kälte der dominierende klimatische Faktor beim Entwerfen von Architektur in Mitteleuropa. Der offensichtliche Klimawandel weist nun der Hitze diese Rolle zu. Architektur und Stadtplanung streben nach effizienten, ressourcenschonenden technischen Lösungen, um den vorherrschenden klimatischen Bedingungen und energetischen Standards gerecht zu werden. Die Aufrechterhaltung von Komfortvorstellungen und die gewohnten Formen des Wohnens und Zusammenlebens werden dabei allerdings kaum hinterfragt. Anstatt lediglich zu versuchen, bestehende Normen zu erfüllen, sollte die Architektur jedoch vermehrt experimentelle Möglichkeiten und Wege aufzeigen, wie wir insbesondere in grossen Städten im heisser werdenden Klima gut zusammenleben können. Die in diesem Buch versammelten Beiträge formulieren - trotz der vermeintlichen Machtlosigkeit gegenüber der drohenden Klimakatastrophe - vielfältige Narrative, die von Erfahrungen, Beobachtungen und Bedürfnissen der Bewohnerinnen und Bewohner von (auch fiktiven) heisser werdenden Welten erzählen. Welche Rolle können Architektur und Stadt als Klimaproduzentinnen in der Gestaltung unseres Lebensraums einnehmen, wenn diese Fragen nicht nur rein technologisch, sondern auch kulturell und sozial verstanden werden.…
