This book explores how built environments can withstand and evolve in response to intensifying environmental challenges. The book examines strategies that blend architectural innovation, urban planning, and ecological design to address the pressing realities of rising sea levels, extreme heat, flooding, and resource scarcity. It highlights adaptive design principles that go beyond sustainability to embrace resilience, focusing on flexibility, redundancy, and community-centered planning. Drawing on global case studies, interdisciplinary research, and forward-looking policies, the text illustrat...
This book explores how built environments can withstand and evolve in response to intensifying environmental challenges. The book examines strategies that blend architectural innovation, urban planning, and ecological design to address the pressing realities of rising sea levels, extreme heat, flooding, and resource scarcity. It highlights adaptive design principles that go beyond sustainability to embrace resilience, focusing on flexibility, redundancy, and community-centered planning. Drawing on global case studies, interdisciplinary research, and forward-looking policies, the text illustrates how cities and buildings can transform into dynamic systems capable of absorbing shocks and thriving in uncertain futures. By linking theory with practical frameworks, it provides students, researchers, and practitioners with tools to design and manage resilient spaces that safeguard both human well-being and environmental integrity in the climate change era.
