Oxford University Press USA November 2016. Hardcover. New. <em>A House in the Sun</em> describes a number of experiments in solar house heating in American architectural engineering political economic and corporate contexts from the beginning of World War II until the late 1950s. Houses were built across the Midwest Northeast and Southwestern United States and also proposed for sites in India South Africa and Morocco. These experiments developed in parallel to transformations in the discussion of modern architecture relying on new materials and design ideas for both energy efficiency and claims to cultural relevance. Architects were among the myriad cultural and scientific actors to see the solar house as an important designed element of the American future. These experiments also developed as part of a wider analysis of the globe as an interconnected geophysical system. Perceived resource limitations in the immediate postwar period led to new understandings of the relationship between energy technology and economy. The solar house - both as a charged object in the milieu of suburban expansion and as a means to raise the standard of living in developing economies - became an important site for social technological and design experimentation. This led to new forms of expertise in architecture and other professions. <br>Daniel Barber argues that this mid-century interest in solar energy was one of the first episodes in which resource limitations were seen as an opportunity for design to attain new relevance for potential social and cultural transformations. Furthermore the solar discussion established both an intellectual framework and a funding structure for the articulation of and response to global environmental concerns in subsequent decades. In presenting evidence of resource tensions at the beginning of the Cold War the book offers a new perspective on the histories of architecture technology and environmentalism one more fully entangled with the often competing dynamics of geopolitical and geophysical pressures.<br> 'A House in the Sun describes a number of solar house experiments in the 1940s and 1950s.

Princeton University Press April 2020. Hardcover. New. <p><b>How climate influenced the design strategies of modernist architects</b></p><p><i>Modern Architecture and Climate</i> explores how leading architects of the twentieth century incorporated climate-mediating strategies into their designs and shows how regional approaches to climate adaptability were essential to the development of modern architecture. Focusing on the period surrounding World War II--before fossil-fuel powered air-conditioning became widely available--Daniel Barber brings to light a vibrant and dynamic architectural discussion involving design materials and shading systems as means of interior climate control. He looks at projects by well-known architects such as Richard Neutra Le Corbusier Lúcio Costa Mies van der Rohe and Skidmore Owings and Merrill and the work of climate-focused architects such as MMM Roberto Olgyay and Olgyay and Cliff May. Drawing on the editorial projects of James Marston Fitch Elizabeth Gordon and others he demonstrates how images and diagrams produced by architects helped conceptualize climate knowledge alongside the work of meteorologists physicists engineers and social scientists. Barber describes how this novel type of environmental media catalyzed new ways of thinking about climate and architectural design.</p><p>Extensively illustrated with archival material <i>Modern Architecture and Climate</i> provides global perspectives on modern architecture and its evolving relationship with a changing climate showcasing designs from Latin America Europe the United States the Middle East and Africa. This timely and important book reconciles the cultural dynamism of architecture with the material realities of ever-increasing carbon emissions from the mechanical cooling systems of buildings and offers a historical foundation for today's zero-carbon design.</p> Princeton University Press hardcover
