520 _a"At One with Nature will provide an overview of Yeang's current thinking on the theory and practice of ecological design, including his technical ideas, design interpretations, aesthetic concepts for an ecological architecture, and images of Yeang's completed works. The primary aim and scope of the book is to present the current thinking and developments on the topic of ecological architecture and ecomasterplanning carried out by Ken Yeang in his research, theoretical and design work. This volume will discuss the implications of their recent developments, progressed since the 1st Edition of this book, published in 2011"--

545 0 _aAbout the Author Ken Yeang is an architect and ecologist best known for his ecology-based signature architecture, with its distinctive verdant green aesthetic and performance beyond green rating systems. Driven by a pioneering spirit, Yeang’s long involvement with sustainable design began in 1971 with his research work on ecological design. Since then he has developed ideas, principles and systems in ecological and bioclimatic architecture and master planning, contributing significant advances in this field evident in his design, research, built work and writings. He trained at the AA (Architectural Association School, UK) and received his doctorate from Cambridge University (UK) on ecological design and planning. His key buildings include Suasana Putrajaya (Malaysia), Solaris (Singapore), Menara Mesiniaga (Malaysia, a recipient of an Aga Khan Award), Genome Research Building (Hong Kong), and Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital Extension (UK). He received the Malaysian Institute of Architects Gold Medal, the Government of Malaysia’s Merdeka Award, and the Architectural Society of China Liang Sicheng Award 2016. He has authored over 12 books on ecological design. The UK Guardian newspaper named him as one of 50 individuals who could save the planet. Edwina Threipland has considerable experience in zero-carbon buildings and high-specification housing schemes, having worked at ZEDFactory and KSR Architects. She is now a partner and director at Pike and Partners Architects Ltd in London, largely focusing on residential architecture. She also enjoys writing on architectural matters and ecological issues for a variety of magazines, and previously created the front cover of The Dictionary of Ecodesign by Ken Yeang and Lilian Woo.
