From DNA-Inspired Structures to Wing-Shaped Roof Designs
Francesca Mercurio — September 4, 2021 — Eco
As society strides forward with increasing concern about climate change, sustainable solutions and eco-conscious initiatives dominate. In architecture, designers favor sustainable energy sources, design practices, and material choices which ultimately please their clients and reduce their design's carbon footprint.
For example, Cameron Anderson Architects have completed an off-grid vacation rental in New South Wales, Australia. This triangular-shaped cabin is lined with solar panels along its roof and is oriented to the north to produce the best possible solar energy. While the materials were sourced by scavenging the plot of the land the home sits on.
Similarly, the design house Feldman Architecture uses salvaged cypress wood to build a relaxed Californian beachfront home. Clients desire sustainably made homes, and architects continue to deliver such requests successfully.
