Convergence Quotes

“The modest analytic tool of simulation is not by itself a sufficient tool for these larger questions. This does nothing to demote the essential work of designers and engineers focused intently and rigorously on questions of energy through simulation. This remains very important work, but today it demands a more comprehensive and extensive context that amplifies the architecture and energy systems with equal purpose and rigor.”
― Kiel Moe, Convergence: An Architectural Agenda for Energy

“Rather than be characterized as a technocratic burden to be satisfied, energy can, and should, help architecture finally and powerfully fulfill the terms of its ambitions: form, space, technology, program, and urbanism.”
