Inhaltsangabe

"...Ford’s new book, co-authored with Kate Mraw and Betsy del Monte, pushes sustainability beyond doing less harm to restoring and revitalizing the environment." ― Architectural Record

Creating the Regenerative School profiles case studies from around the world that exemplify best practices in creating healthy, climate appropriate learning environments for early learners through high school with designs that are not only beautiful places to learn, but embrace restorative principles - enhancing the lives of the occupants, the environment, and the community they reside in. Each project will be profiled with eight pages of content including multiple photographs, plans, diagrams and approximately 1,000 words of narrative capturing the unique solutions. Case studies were evaluated on five metrics:
• Net-Zero Energy/Carbon Strategies
• Healthy, Regenerative Building Attributes
• Utilization of Evidence Based Informed Design
• Occupant Satisfaction
• Post Occupancy Data
The case studies will be supplemented with essays from leading subject-matter experts addressing topics ranging from:
• Evidence Based Design
• Occupant Health
• Net Zero Energy
• Net Zero Carbon
• Designing for Resilience in the face of Climate Change
• Best Practices in Designing for Safety and Security
• Biophilic Design
• Pathways to Advocacy
Extensive research, communications, interviews data analysis were utilised in compiling the book with the mission to share knowledge and insights that are vital to creating healthy, regenerative ECE-12 learning environments in all manner of contexts. Outcomes for each project will be profiled in the form of post occupancy data, certifications received, and client perspectives.
