註釋
This practical guide demonstrates the benefits of sustainable design, emphasising its development as an economically viable and profitable option. It provides:
* A unique focus on how to create profit from sustainable design and planning of the built environment
* Hands-on advice showing how theories of sustainability can be applied in actual projects
* A universal perspective, through multi-national case studies from Europe, North America and Australia
In Planning and Design Strategies for Sustainability and Profit, Adrian Pitts identifies current problems which demand the employment of a new holistic approach to sustainability. The book details the issues, and provides a range of potential solutions and techniques that can be applied by the architect and urban designer at both the building and urban scale. It goes on to provide examples of good practice and guidelines for future development - essential information that shows how sustainability has been developed to provide tangible benefits, not only to the environment, but also to users and designers.
