Something is happening within the Swiss architecture schools. More and more faculties are having their students design with energy and environment in mind. They no longer see their responsibility to society only in terms of aesthetics and function, but also in respect of the sustainability of the building. This booklet brings together student projects from all over Switzerland and gives four female professors the opportunity to share their views. It shows: solar buildings are no longer about obligations, but instead about wishes, creativity and action!

The publication is not available in English, but is available in German, French and Italian as a print or pdf version.
