Beyond Sustainability: Moving Towards Regenerative Architecture
This book makes a humble attempt in taking the discussion on sustainability and architecture forward in an effort to push the dialog beyond the jargon of 'green building.'
The speed and scale of sustainable theories are not enough at this stage when the world needs immediate course correction for the increasing carbon footprint and depletion of natural resources.
In Beyond Sustainability, Tushar Mittal explores the subject of 'Regenerative Architecture,' discussing the principles, process and toolkit that takes architecture towards net positive.
To make this big shift happen, the book suggests changing our perspective, which is explored in the book as a framework that can be readily applied on any project. It is the promise of author to the readers that the book is not talking in 'future' or about architecture of the future-- but to itemize present actions which will create an achievable, brighter future.
This book will be of interest to students, early career scholars, established researchers and practitioners studying sustainability in the built environment. It can also be used as a reference to those in the fields of design, architecture, landscape and urban design, urban studies, geography, social sciences, and engineering.
Illustrated with photographs and analysis of three different genre of architecture typology, this book sets the stage for engaging intentionally in discussions on regenerative architecture.
