Architecture is a manifestation of social and cultural values. Today buildings consume more energy than any other sector; these are also the largest contributors to climate change. Consequently, architecture has the potential to direct the impact that buildings have on the environment. This thesis seeks to re-examine, re-imagine the processes...CONTINUE READING »

Through an interactive website and a collection of books, “Drawing Well-Being” aims to raise awareness of the living standards and development of the world’s countries by comparatively visualizing data provided by the United Nations.

The data visualized on drawingwellbeing.com and in four sample books, which focus on Chile, India, Senegal and the U.S. respectively, corresponds to a selection of data published in the UN’s Human Development Report 2011, Sustainability and Equity: A Better Future for All. Both the books and the website were designed...CONTINUE READING »
