How to Look at Clouds:Energy Beyond Atmosphere in Architecture, examinesthe nature of this productive disruption andexplores the recent work of a range of practitioners,interpreted through the visual categories articulatedby Gyorgy Kepes. The result is a proto-guide; instructionson how to envision energy in architecture,that addresses how architects can leverage theseemergent tools to author novel compositional andmaterial opportunities, yielding new insights intothe relationship between architecture and energy.
