Welches ist die nachhaltigste Lösung für den Umgang mit Energie bei Gebäuden? Der von der Bauindustrie seit mehr als einem Jahrhundert verfolgte Weg heißt: Wärmedämmung durch Dämmsysteme. Eine zunehmend stärker werdende Gegenbewegung insbesondere unter Architekten vertritt die Meinung, dass die beste Lösung im intelligenten Entwerfen als der Kernkompetenz der Architektur zu suchen ist. Dieses faktengesättigte Buch schreibt die Geschichte der etablierten Wärmedämmtechnologien und liefert zugleich die Grundlagen für die sich heute abzeichnenden alternativen Lösungen. Über die wissenschaftlichen, materiellen und architektonischen Aspekte der Wärmedämmung hinaus geht der Blick auf die Isolierung als eine zentrale und zugleich fragwürdige Kategorie des Umgangs mit Energie beim Bauen. Verfasst von einem Architekten, der neben detailliertem technischen Wissen auch über langjährige Erfahrungen in Forschung und Lehre an der Harvard University verfügt, zielt das Buch auf ein besseres Verständnis der unterschiedlichen Perspektiven auf das Thema Energie. Es öffnet den Blick auf eine thermodynamisch sinnvolle, ökologisch wirkungsvolle, kulturell bereichernde und architektonisch wegweisende Perspektive des Umgangs mit Energie in der Architektur.

What is the best way to consider energy in buildings? For over a century, the building industry has largely focused on ideas of insulation and isolation for its energetic practices. A growing movement of designers claim that other concepts and practices are required for the non-isolated energy systems of architecture. This book describes the history, theory and facts of the mainstream isolation technologies and the emerging alternative design approaches. It is a book on the scientific, material, and design history of building isolation; but more importantly, it is a book on isolated and non-isolated perspectives on energy in architecture. Written by a registered practicing architect with detailed technical knowledge, who is at the same time a researcher and experienced teacher, the aim is to understand the different scientific, architectural and cultural approaches to energy and to promote a non-isolated perspective: a thermodynamically accurate, ecologically powerful, culturally relevant, and architecturally ambitious perspective on energy in architecture.
