How schools merge knowledge with action and prepare the next generation of architects for tackling the climate crisis
As humanity grapples with the climate crisis, architectural pedagogy finds itself at a critical juncture. Architecture schools not only must contribute to envisioning better futures but also equipping the next generation of architects with the audacity to question, project, explore and imagine alternative solutions. Transcalar Prospects in Climate Crisis offers a vital compilation of research projects and essays reflecting the investigative efforts at EPFL Architecture. Addressing critical issues like material uses, land and soil degradation, environmental justice and circular urban flows, the book brings together diverse, entangled perspectives and transcalar vantage points. It is a must-read for architects, urban planners, designers, scholars and anyone seeking knowledge and inspiration for climate action, urging a conscious and critical response to one of the most pressing issues of our time.
