Abstract :
[en] Regenerative design holds great promise for a new era of sustainable and positive impact architecture, sparking considerable interest among architects, building professionals and their clients. Until now there are no green buildings with an overall positive impact on environment and health. In this regard, the professional and scientific potential of regenerative architecture can only be fully realized by the setting a design framework that guides designers during projects design, construction and operation. This book introduces readers to key concepts of circularity in the built environment, highlight best practices, introduce opportunities to create value learn from real cutting edge case studies. In this book, we present a novel framework for regenerative building design that can be applied to future constructions based on professional expertise and exposure, towards healthy, resource efficient and green buildings in the AEC industry. We compare four state of the art buildings to address the critical principles, strategies and steps in the transition from the negative impact reduction architecture to the positive impact regenerative architecture, utilizing life cycle analysis. The case studies analysis and comparison can serve as an inspiring eye opener and provide a vision for architects and building professionals in the fields of high performance buildings, resource centered thinking and regenerative architecture.
