    e2: deeper shades of green

    Design e2: Deeper shades of green-three visionaries

    Part 1. Ken Yeang-singapore library

    Part 2. William McDonough-upcycle vs. downcycle 10:30-17:15

    "all children of all species for all time"

    Part 3. Werner Sobek-R128 (home on one truck) and R129 (soap bubble home)

    Consider the energy lab: nothing in the elab can be toxic in production, use or disposal

    Questions:

    1. "I look for what needs to be done"-what does this mean for you?
    2. Look up Buckminster Fuller. What structural design did he create that you might see?
    3. What do you notice about the library Ken Yeang created that is similar to the elab?
    4. What is bioclimatic design?
    5. Recall the California Academy of Science and Renzo Piano-what is similar about these two approaches?
    6. Why did the cheapness of energy in the 1960's impact design?
    7. Why would "low tech" solutions be better in the long run over "high tech" solutions?
    8. "The technology should be invisible"-why is this important? How does it change the sense of the user?
    9. Our older classrooms had something like the light shelves. Look above the lockers in these classrooms and describe how these might work.
    10. Stanford's Y2E2 building has a similar heat stack in the center of it, with automated louvers at the top, and an automated fire door sealing off the bottom in case of fire. How do you think these might work? https://web.stanford.edu/class/cee243/Week2V2.pdf
    11. "Cradle to cradle" means what?
    12. What is downcycling? What does McDonough advocate?
    13. How could removing the toxic substances from the design of materials impact their upcycling?
    14. What three elements are needed for cradle to cradle?
    15. What is the difference between being efficient and being effective in his mind?
    16. Apple was the first computer company to adopt the cradle to cradle approach. Why do you think the cost apart from components for the white laptops in our classroom are more than for the aluminum ones?
    17. What is our design opportunity in this "second industrial re-evolution"?
    18. As a student in APES, you will be seen as an expert in some of these fields. McDonough mentions that "people don't need to be an expert at everything, just to leverage the expertise of others". How do you fit into this picture?
    19. "Take, make and waste". How could we change this?
    20. "Love of all children of all species, for all time". How do you fit into this?
    21. How does the "all on one truck" idea of a home impact transportation, building and recycling?
    22. Stuttgart Germany is the center of a very intensive industrial area. Why is this contrast so effective for that society?
    23. The elab is one link in the support system for the Mars habitat simulation. What is similar between that HISEAS habitat and the R129 concept building?
    24. "Substitute material with energy"-how does this work, why is it one step towards sustainable design?
    25. "You can do anything, you just must want it" Says Werner Sobek. If you had such an opportunity, what would you want to design?
