Produktbeschreibung

FORTHCOMING BOOK SUMMER 2026, PRE-ORDER NOW! Resource scarcity defines the conditions under which architecture now operates. This concise and rigorously argued essay addresses material use as an ethical and political question rather than a purely technical one. It moves beyond carbon metrics to propose a broader understanding of resources that includes ecological systems and the interdependence of human and non-human life. Drawing on Environmental Humanities, the text exposes the consequences of extractive building practices and outlines alternative approaches grounded in reuse and restraint.
