Greenwash Conceals Sustainable Building Opus | The Earthship - 0 views

  •  
    In the architectural and building sectors, we have explored, promoted and dissected the fact that we are currently battling greenwash so much, that we may in fact be greenwashing the aforementioned greenwash. Indeed the term is so readily bandied about, that it no longer makes sense and is therefore responded to as a null and void sentiment. As confusing as that may seem, it holds the key to the reason that we are stuck in a vicious industry cycle that is unfortunately blocking the promotion of some incredible, and highly sustainable, built projects. Due to a confusion and misrepresentation of certain green and sustainable buildings and features, a number of these incredible designs, and their built forms, are being lost in the jungle of false green advertisement. One incredible design that, more often than not, does not receive the deserved appreciation is that of the humble Earthship.

Green Building Versus Sustainability - Is there a difference? - 0 views

  •  
    We in the construction and design industry are currently going through a greenwash, a saturation of sustainability. In fact, we may be creating it. This public sense of exhaustion and lack of understanding in response to environmentally conscious mentalities and building processes, anything labeled 'green' to be precise, is causing an increased apathy in the entire sector and is impacting the communication of projects and concepts. Yet we are only adding fuel to the fire. We in this industry, and even those who are not, are confusing two key terms; that of Green Building and Sustainability, in turn creating confusion through misrepresented and easily misunderstood jargon. The thing is, it's universal. And ever so easy to accidently do.

Building From the Ground Down - Green Building Digs In - 0 views

  •  
    When moving towards a sustainability goal in the architecture and construction industry, eco-technologies are often the first choice that builders and designers make. While these additions are successful in decreasing, or even eliminating, excess carbon emissions expelled during the construction or running stages of a building's life, there are much simpler organic processes that can be used to simply decrease a reliance on brown energy use. Orientation Planning is a prime example of a simple, zero technologically driven sustainable building concept. Through the careful positioning of a building, its reliance upon technologies, green or otherwise, to control the interior climate can be dramatically reduced, or even eliminated entirely.

Sustainable Melbourne School Creates Striking Skyline Feature - 0 views

  •  
    A Melbourne school is creating great industry waves for its mix of stunning architecture and environmentally responsible principles. Acting as an incredible promotion of green thinking to both the young students attending and the wider community, is the junior building at Penleigh and Essendon Grammar School (PEGS). While the striking building, transformed by architectural firm McBride Charles Ryan is completely passive in its design, an absolute feat in its own right, it is its aesthetic that truly stands out. Oftentimes in green building projects a building's visual appeal is ignored in order to focus on the sustainable building aspects. While environmental responsibility may be more important than design greatness, it is incredibly positive to see such a prime example of a culmination of these ideas executed so elegantly.

Greensburg GreenTown - Sustainable Building Database - 0 views

  • 10'x10' cubes to showcase sustainable practices to visitors and the community. After meeting with GreenTown, The Green Club, and interested residents, students selected the preferred and most feasible models, and designed, built and delivered four cubes as a gift to the community. The cubes are located on the lot adjacent to the GreenTown office. The "Ice Cube" collects rainwater on the roof, purifies it through two ceramic filters, and dispenses the water through a conventional drinking fountain. The "Watering Can" showcases a composting toilet, solar hot water heater, and rainwater catchment system. The "Recycling Bin" demonstrates a small-scale wind turbine and provides information on how to sort recyclables. (Students from The Green Club assisted in the building of this cube at KSU.) The "Green Haus" showcases an array of eco-friendly insulation options that people can use in their homes or businesses.
