2.What is Green Architecture?

3.How are the body and buildings similar?

4.Examples of Green Architecture

5.Green Building Rating Systems

6.Lehman New Science Facility – Case Study

Architecture is the imaginative blend of art and science in the design of environments for people. People need places to eat, work, live and play. Architects transform these needs into concepts and then develop the concepts into building images that can be constructed by others. These projects can be as small as an entrance way and as large as an entire college campus—and everything in between.*

What is Architecture?

*http://www.archcareers.org/HowToBecomeAnArchitect.pdf

Covers the design of the habitable man-made environment:

* ARCHITECTUREDesign of single structures. From a houseto a skyscraper.

* LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTUREDesign of exterior spaces adjacent to and on top of buildings. Gardens & Parks

* URBAN PLANNINGPlanning and Design of collections of buildings and exterior spaces – Systems design of neighborhoods and cities.

DESIGN DISCIPLINES

Owner has a need. They pay for Architect’s time to design building plans. Owner also pays Contractor to construct building.

Designs the building – solves the owner’s need – prepares drawings to show design

ideas for contractor.

Builds project according to architect’s drawings. Is paid directly by the owner

for work completed.

Owner must request Green Architecture.

Architect must be trained in design of Green Architecture.

Contractor must understand special apsects of design for

TRASH

“In North America, buildings and urban infrastructure account for 40 percent of material consumption and a third of energy use. High-income cities have an ecological footprint—the dispersed area of land and water required to supply their needs and assimilate their wastes—that is several hundred times larger than their political areas.”

Scientific American, Building More Sustainable Cities, William E. Rees, March 12, 2009

U.S. uses 20% of all energy in the world.

US population is only4.4% of the world’s.

U.S. uses 8% of all energy in the world just for our buildings!
