Rebuild: A Sustainable Architecture Magazine

As the human population continues to grow and the environment continues to be impacted by human activities, it is increasingly important for us to build sustainable homes for the future. Sustainable homes are energy efficient, use renewable materials, and take into consideration the environmental impact of their location. In short, building sustainable homes is essential for reducing our carbon footprint and slowing climate change. Not only do these homes reduce the amount of energy and resources used in construction and operation, but they also reduce pollution levels and improve air quality. They are also more cost-effective. Ultimately, sustainable homes will help create a healthier, greener, and more sustainable future.

 For my Senior Capstone project, I published a sustainable architecture magazine called REBUILD. This magazine consists of 24 pages and includes content highlighting the impacts of climate change and the benefits of sustainable design in homes. It also has information on different methods and materials to use to make your home eco-friendly and resistant to natural disasters. There is a feature highlighting four different homes across the world that are sustainably built and also resistant to certain natural disasters. My aim is to provide a visually appealing magazine in combination with relevant content in hopes of providing information to architects, or others, who just wish to learn more about sustainable design.

Rebuild is a magazine that continually explores how to make a new house, or existing home, more efficient and safer from the threat of natural disasters.
