Vetro & Architettura |

|
Glass & Architecture is a winning combination for sustainability, environmental protection, quality of life, interior comfort and aesthetic integration into the urban fabric. These must, indeed, be the main objectives in the design of small and imposing structures. The architecture of the last three centuries has highlighted the constant and fruitful interaction between the genetic transparency of this material and its ability to integrate with other advanced technologies in order to guarantee a superior future habitat. The aim of this book is to lead the reader-user – thanks to an immediate, though technical, language and the accompanying images – to an in-depth knowledge and ability to select the most suitable glass. All through the experience of those who produce, transform, design and apply this exclusive material – the main provider of natural light in the environments in which we live. A practical tool that, in addition to covering the millennia-old history of glass in art and architecture, guide us in understanding its market, current production processes, regulations, energy protocols and the most striking current and forthcoming innovations.
