Aqua House - architecture that integrates water technically and aesthetically

Does Stephanie Madison Habitus that interviews about their "Aqua House, architecture that integrates water technically and aesthetically" workbook author can please comment on what inspired him to write Aqua houses and key ideas in the book?

Refers to current on global water usage and increasing pollution of their environments is what me to write Aqua House inspired. The book focuses on the relationship of architecture and water.Once again the place of architecture in order to determine how current practices in architecture contribute to pollution of water environments and what is believed to be an unsustainable use of the misma.El book trafficking investigate how some of these practices in architecture could be modified in the future in order to mitigate the problem of water.

Is the key idea in the book how the design of a house you can integrate the technical and aesthetic features of water?

I have tried to answer this by designing a building (Aqua House) that works with the features of aesthetic and technical aqua.Además, design integrates water and architecture in a way that could help reduce agua.Mientras to Aqua House environmental pollution is a small project, which focused on the problem of residential architecture maybe you can help raise awareness about broader issues of water. Perhaps lessons can extrapolate to a review of other types of buildings and urban environments, where a wider set of problems of water could be considered.

In following the principles outlined in houses of Aqua, what can consumers integrating solutions water-wise in their own homes that are technically efficient and architecturally aesthetic?

The principles outlined in the House of Aqua is rain, which is collected, recycled and cleaned, held and organizes the House.It is an example of how consumers could integrate solutions water-wise in their own homes locate in the lobby of his house a group of reflection that stores water high calidad.Podría celebrate water harvested in the way does it the receiver in the Hall of the Villa Savoye, and cleaning travel guests are invited.Another example is the have a structure that consists of a series of columns aqua.Water columns replace the tank of groundwater or solid water tanks used in other sustainable, allowing visual recognition and knowledge of the amount of water stored, while also used to supply the water needs of houses.

What you envision with consumers who want in terms of water-wise architectural spaces in the future, please describe?Do you think that consumers are drawn to these spaces to design elements, etc.?

Glimpse consumers wanting water-wise architectural spaces to the experience of States and transformations, their distinctive tastes, sounds and olores.Belleza water lies in its fluidity, transparency and reflexive-ness.Por example, water is symbolic meanings: Chinese Feng Shui represents good chi and Christianity, which means limpieza.Personas are naturally attracted to the water for their aesthetic qualities and musicians frequently held in its trabajo.Las songs of Schubert, Deep Purple smoke water on water, Simon and Garfunkel Bridge over Troubled Water, Lady in the water, Wild River, water lilies are examples of music and movies inspired by artists like Hockney, Dalí, Picasso, Monet, Escher, agua.Pinturas English represent the beauty of the water.

I believe that consumers will be drawn to integrated design solutions knowing that each year are sent 0.0 litres of effluent and 0.0 litres of water to rivers and oceans, and manage the process to celebrate it.
