Product Description

This essential book unravels the link between regional cultures, adaptive reuse of existing buildingsand sustainability. It concentrates on the social dimensions relating to Brazilian architect Lina BoBardis late adaptive reuse projects and works from the 1960s to the early 1990s, interpreting herthemes, technical sources and design strategies of the creation of luxury as sustainability.The editedbook charts how Lina Bo Bardi invented her own version of sustainability, introduced this conceptthrough her landscape and adaptive reuse designs and through ideas about cross-cultures in Brazil.The book offers a critical reflection, exploration and demonstration of the importance of adaptivereuse in the landscape and related themes for researchers and provides researchers and students new material on sustainability for further study. In the context of the plurality of revisions of Lina Bo Bardis work, this book brings about a refreshed interpretation of her integrativeapproach to adaptive reuse of buildings and landscapes as a significant contribution to the sustainability debate. It offers new insights into the construction of discourses about sustainability from the perspective of one of the key architects in the period to operate in the interface between modernity and tradition. Dr Fabiano Lemes de Oliveira, Senior Lecturer, University of Portsmouth (UK) Adaptability is one of the most important words in sustainable architecture today. From this perspective, this book looks at the work of a master of Brazilian modernism with lessons to be learnt on how to qualify indoor and outdoor spaces in social, environmental and architectural terms. Adaptive strategies as those seen throughout the work of Bo Bardi are key instrument/tools/concept to sustainable buildings and cities. Professor Joana Carla Soares Goncalves, FAU, University of Sao Paulo (Brazil) The year 2015 marked the centenary of Lina Bo Bardi. This book is looking at Bardi's work through the perspective of adaptive reuse. Bringing together specialists on sustainability with specialists of Lina's work, the book generates an interesting new layer of discussion on the work of an architect that was never shy of controversy. Associate Professor Fernando Luiz Lara, University of Texas at Austin (USA) This collection of essays makes a very important and engaging contribution to suggest that to take Lina as an inspiration is to deal with her contradictions and to evaluate the stakes of what she struggled with in a 21st century world.What the authors gathered here and have laid out is a very timely invitation to discern Lessons from Lina in relationship to todays pressing issues of architecture and environment, sustainability, recycling, and developing an ethical design position in a world of diminishing resources and escalating challenges. -Prof Barry Bergdoll, Columbia University and MoMA, New York (USA) The book features a Foreword by Barry Bergdoll.
