Description

In this timely reconsideration of skyscraper design, Kenneth Yeang proposes an important new methodology. This is the bioclimatic approach: one which uses passive, low-energy techniques to produce buildings which are environmentally interactive, efficient and increase occupant comfort. Based on the research, design and development of the author's own architectural practice in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, the text is illustrated with many examples from his own work, and. interspersed with comments from leading authorities.
