Text of Note

"Sustainability has come to be associated with cutting-edge technology, and in architecture, with glass, steel, solar panels, and wind turbines. In Britain and the United States, the majority view of sustainable housing involves "modern" solutions to problems and the application of technology to produce green products and services. Add to this the fact that most consumers want to live in a traditional house in a traditional setting and work in a traditional office building, and significant problems emerge. First, consumers reject sustainability because they think it will take them into a high-tech environment rather than a traditional setting. Second, tradition is viewed with scorn among built environment professionals, derided as kitsch and as pastiche. The result: a disconnect between the professionals and their clients." "In Green Living: Architecture and Planning, twelve leading experts in green architecture and urbanism argue that tradition and the vernacular have much to teach us about sustainability, and in fact can serve as the base from which to evolve cities, towns, and buildings that can respond to our global environmental challenges. Indeed, if we look past the last fifty years of planning and architectural trends to the deeper patterns that have provided the foundation for human settlement on the planet for more than a few thousand years, some of the answers have been right under our noses the whole time. Resolving the conflict between the professionals and their clients will require better definitions of both sustainability and tradition, and the reestablishment of living traditions that evolve to confront contemporary challenges." "Green Living provides an insight into current thinking on the subject that will both enlighten the layperson and provide an important, scholarly appreciation to architects and urban planners alike.".
