📘 New Release: The Biophilic Paradigm in HVAC Engineering #Amazon via @Amazon — https://a.co/d/30dIaul In a world where buildings are becoming increasingly sealed and mechanized, The Biophilic Paradigm in HVAC Engineering offers a bold re-imagining of how we condition the indoor environments where we live and work. Instead of isolating ourselves from nature with rigid thermal and airflow systems, this book invites engineers to embrace nature as an active partner in HVAC design — one that can improve comfort, efficiency, and occupant well-being.

At its core, the biophilic paradigm is about reconnecting buildings with the biological systems that sustain life — not just aesthetically, but functionally. Traditional HVAC focuses on mechanical isolation: tightly sealed envelopes, energy-intensive cooling and heating, and engineered airflows that often ignore the complex benefits of natural ecological processes.
