Climate-Smart Design and Construction: A New Approach for Architects The construction sector is a significant contributor to CO2 emissions and grey energy use. To address this, we need a fundamental shift in how architects work and are trained. This book introduces climate-friendly concepts in an accessible way, encouraging readers to explore solutions and new approaches in their daily practice. It explains the key factors involved in building planning stages, placing them within the context of overall planning. The book covers current sustainability concepts, providing foundational knowledge for architecture students. It also considers challenges and solutions in climate protection from an interdisciplinary perspective. This volume is part of a series that aims to inspire readers to rethink their approach to urban planning and construction. By understanding resource consumption and adopting a lifecycle approach, architects can make buildings fit for the future and help prevent catastrophic climate change.
