The Week in Sustainable Design (01/08/06)

Jill Fehrenbacher and Sarah Rich

Jill Fehrenbacher and Sarah Rich write about the ongoing evolution of sustainable design at Inhabitat Prefab is on the rise down under. With tremendous climatic variation and a relatively slow housing market, homebuilders in Australia have more than one challenge to surmount. In these conditions, prefab designers may have the greatest advantage, due to their highly accommodating manufacturing process. One of the leading new Australian designers, Andrew Maynard, puts it simply: "How can the...

The Week in Green Design (11/12/05): Green Roofs

Jill Fehrenbacher and Sarah Rich

Jill Fehrenbacher and Sarah Rich write about the ongoing evolution of sustainable design at Inhabitat. American cities have a surprising amount of wasted open space. Even in densely packed urban areas like New York City, the prime real estate atop roofs is given much less consideration than one would expect from a populace that values each square foot of space so highly. This oversight is a real shame, because there is so much that can be done to improve the local environment and quality of...

Cradle to Grave

Jill Fehrenbacher and Sarah Rich

Jill Fehrenbacher and Sarah Rich write about the ongoing evolution of sustainable design at Inhabitat. When it comes time to bury a loved one, our otherwise expansive worldview is often funneled down to the immediate and necessary. Thinking of the environmental impact of final arrangements is rarely a priority. But there are people out there, from product designers to funeral home owners, who are trying to make it a little easier to make an eco-conscious choice when the time comes. It is...

Fabulous Prefab

Jill Fehrenbacher and Sarah Rich

In keeping with our efforts to tie the weekly design column into current cultural happenings, this week's topic is prefab housing, which is being celebrated in Los Angeles through today at the Prefab Now event, hosted by Dwell Magazine and UCLA's Hammer Museum. At the center of the event is the Hammer's Jean Prouvé exhibition, which showcases three prefab structures created in the mid-twentieth century by the iconic French designer. His Tropical House has been constructed in the courtyard...

New Sustainable Materials According to the U.S. Department of Energy, building construction waste makes up almost 25% of the total municipal solid waste produced in this country annually. In typical residential construction, the top contributors to this massive amount of discarded material are drywall, wood and masonry. While reducing waste is clearly a top priority in lowering the impact of construction, it is also important to begin producing materials which, when sent to landfills and...

The Week in Sustainable Design (10/16/05)

Jill Fehrenbacher and Sarah Rich

Today marks the close of another tremendously inspiring Bioneers conference. If there's one subject that has been consistently touched upon by nearly every speaker, it's the state of our urban environment. Our cities, in large part, are an indication of the health of our communities and our culture. Hence, the decay of inner cities and the environmental injustices that plague low-income neighborhoods in particular, are an indication of an urban society that is in disrepair. Many of the...

The Week in Sustainable Design (10/09/05)

Jill Fehrenbacher and Sarah Rich

It's been upsetting to witness the recent coastal devastation for many reasons, not least of which is the proof positive that global warming has hastened an onslaught of extreme weather patterns. In addition to fostering stronger hurricanes and typhoons, the warming of the planet is melting the polar icecaps, which will cause sea levels to rise significantly in the near future, potentially flooding low-lying coastal areas like Bangladesh, the Maldives, parts of Holland, and even parts of the...
