Designing for energy efficiency: a study of eight California state office buildings

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6604673
The architectural implications of energy conscious design were investigated by comparing a series of office buildings designed under similar constraints by different architects. Conceptual/architectural issues are emphasized. Although the buildings were analyzed by computer modeling, the results were used only to reinforce other observations about building form and design. The details and explanations of the more technical comparisons are described in a technical appendix. (MHR)
