Delve deep into the complex issues surrounding humanitarian
design
Ground Rules in Humanitarian Design establishes essential
foundations for thinking about humanitarian design and its role in
global change. Outlining a vital framework for designing for
impoverished and disaster-stricken communities, this informative
guide explores the integration of culture, art, architecture,
economy, ecology, health, and education. Experts on land, health,
water, housing, education, and planning weigh in with best
practices and critical considerations during the design process,
and discussion of the environmental considerations and local
materials/skills will broaden your understanding of this nuanced
specialty. Richly illustrated, this guide combines graphic
documentation of projects, maps, and data-tracking developments
from Asia, Africa, and the Americas to underscore the complexities
of this emerging and evolving field.
The ambition to provide humanitarian architecture for areas in
acute need is driving design innovation worldwide among both
practitioners and educators. This book provides an indispensable
resource for those engaged in the search for the sustainable
inclusion of cultural code and compassion as a technology for
design innovation.
* Learn how to approach the problem of humanitarian design
* Understand the cultural factors that play into development
* Develop a new framework for planning post-disaster design
* See how humanitarian design is pushing the industry
forward
While still in college, students are being given the opportunity
to directly participate in programmes that provide vital facilities
for communities abroad. While these international initiatives
remain largely ad hoc, this book provides parameters for
engagement and establishes best practices for approaching these
projects with a global perspective. With expert insight and
practical strategies on the ground, Ground Rules in Humanitarian
Design is an essential resource for architects at any
level.
