Mario Cucinella
MCA Mario Cucinella Architects, founded in 1992, is a company with solid experience at the forefront of contemporary design & research. MCA has an integrated approach to design work based on close collaboration with multi-disciplinary consultants, to create innovative design responses for every project & client requirement.
MC A Mario Cucinella Architects
Mario Cucinella and Elizabeth Francis lead this Paris and Bologna based office and this issue spans the period 1996 to 2011 on both built and unbuilt projects. Among the projects are the ISPRA Eco Centre Canteen in Ispra (Italy), the eBO Exhibition pavilion for city projects in Bologna, the Uniflair Headquarters in Conselve near Padua, and the Bologna Civic Offices in Bologna. Among the unbuilt projects are the 3M Headquarters in Milan and the 100.000 euro Home Research Project in Turin.
Building Green Futures. Ediz. Inglese
- Mario Cucinella curated the Italian Pavilion 'Archipelago Italia' at the 16th Architectural Biennale of Venice in 2018 - Mario Cucinella Architects was founded in 1992, and is a world leader in crafting sustainable architectural solutions for a wide variety of building uses This book brings together a collection of recent projects and classic architectural designs by Mario Cucinella Architects, and explores the sensitive, creative, and sustainable solutions that architecture and nature can provide in answer to global challenges. The way forward is approached via constructive strategies of the past and from the plant world, looking at how man has adapted in every latitude, climate, and culture. Buildings of the past considered resources like wind, sun, rain, and local materials, sustainable strategies that are increasingly important today. Research in the plant world inspires buildings that can adapt to the climate and resonate with the environment. Each project featured here is accompanied by a wealth of illustrations and drawings, and an in-depth analysis that interprets all aspects of construction.
Architecture, City, Environment
PLEA is a network of individuals sharing expertise in the arts, sciences, planning and design of the built environment. It serves as an international, interdisciplinary forum to promote discourse on environmental quality in architecture and planning. This 17th PLEA international conference addresses sustainable design with respect to architecture, city and environment at the turn of the millennium. The central aim of the conference is to explore the interrelationships and integration of architecture, city and environment. The Proceedings will be of interest to all those involved in bioclimatic design and the application of natural and innovative techniques to architecture and planning. The conference is organised by the Martin Centre for Architectural and Urban Studies, University of Cambridge and the Cambridge Programme for Industry, University of Cambridge.
Sustainable Architecture and Urbanism
Since the mid-1980s, and in particular the 1992 environmental summit in Rio de Janeiro, sustainability has become a global issue and the subject of international debate. In the context of architecture sustainability implies the use of intelligent technology, innovative construction methods, ecologically friendly materials and use of environmentally-friendly energy resources. This book begins with an overview of the various approaches and developments in sustainable architecture, followed by an in-depth section on urbanism looking at several European towns. In the third section the technologies, materials and methods of ecological architecture are examined. Concluding the volume are 23 sophisticated and innovative European case studies. The author and architect Dominique Gauzin-Müller has specialised on energy and environmental issues and ecological architecture for over 15 years.
High-Performance Building
Publisher description
Novel Approaches in Materials and Technologies for Building Construction
The book discusses the latest developments in the area of building constructions. Most of the building components such as columns, roofs and concrete blocks are available in prefabricated forms that increase the speed of construction processes. The goal is to engineer buildings that are sustainable, efficient, resilient, economically viable; and ensure the safety, health and comfort of occupants. New materials and technologies aim at energy efficiency, water conservation, improved indoor air quality, durability and low life cycle and maintenance costs. Keywords: Building Materials, Columns, Roofs, Concrete Blocks, Prefabricated Forms, Greenhouse Gas Emission, Energy Efficiency, Water Conservation, Air Quality, Life Cycle Cost, Maintenance Costs, Calcium Silicate Bricks, Autoclaved Aerated Concrete Blocks, Hydraform Interlocking Block Walling System, Reinforced Hollow Concrete Block Masonry, 3D Printing Technology, Structural Insulated Panels, Glass Fibre Reinforced Gypsum Panels, Monolithic Concrete Construction Technology, Formwork System for Building Construction, Insulated Roof, Wall Tiles, Metal Roofing System, Warehouses.
