Acclaimed architect Renzo Piano's vision for the new California Academy
of Sciences is one of hope and grand ambition: to create a model for
sustainable design at an unprecedented scale. This is the story of an
architectural masterpiece detailing the intricacies of form and
function: its 2.5-acre rooftop garden, the 60,000 photovoltaic cells
designed to power the building, and its use of natural light and
ventilation. This celebratory book serves as both resource and reminder
of how humans can live and work in harmony with nature.
