Design and the Built Environment of the Arctic

Explores key themes and challenges affecting the Arctic region and provides much-needed new scholarship about past practices and historical trajectories, comparative investigations, contemporary theories, case studies, design practice, new technologies, and future projections about the design of the built environment in the Arctic region. Includes studies from geographies such as Greenland, Alaska, Canada and Norway. Will appeal to a wide range of readers both within and outside of the design discipline, from scholars to policy makers in architecture, landscape, planning, urban design, environmental science, engineering, geography, and health.
