[Book launch] "Sustainable Design for Uncertain Futures: Dialogues on Time-Based Architecture" by Joshua D. Lee and Joseph Murray (co-editors)
"Sustainable Design for Uncertain Futures" introduces readers to 14 time-based strategies in architecture through a series of dialogues between leading experts. This format allows for a dynamic exploration of strategies ranging from Adaptive Reuse to Bio Design, revealing how each addresses the forces of change and can add adaptive capacity to the built environment. The book's structure invites readers to engage with these strategies at multiple levels. Each chapter begins with a fundamentals section, providing context and key examples. The core of each chapter is the dialogue between leading experts, offering key insights into how these strategies work in practice and where they might be used in combination. By presenting these strategies through dialogue, the editors demonstrate the collaborative thinking needed to address growing uncertainty in the built environment and provide a framework to consider the technical and management approaches that emerged. The book’s practical focus helps bridge the gap between theory and application, making this edited volume a resource both academics and practitioners.
