Allison H. Anderson, FAIA, is the founding principal of unabridged Architecture, a firm recognized for incorporating sustainability, climate change adaptation, and resilience across a wide variety of project scales. Allison was the first LEED‑Accredited Professional in Mississippi, focused on sustainability. After Hurricane Katrina devastated her community, unabridged Architecture began exploring resilience and climate adaptation. Her research is included in the Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Natural Hazard Science, the AIA Resilient Project Process Guide, AIA Climate Action Playbook, and the AIA Framework for Design Excellence. Allison has taught architecture at the University of Texas, Tulane University, and Louisiana State University. She is a Fellow of the American Institute of Architects.

‘Resilience for architects is a matter of understanding how climate hazards threaten to damage and destroy a building and making hundreds of well-informed design decisions. Allison Anderson’s book, Climate Adaptation for Architects, is written with the obvious insight of a practicing architect who has made those hundred of decisions many times and lives up to the responsibility to make buildings that will stand the tests of increasing risks’. David Perkes, AIA, Professor, Mississippi State University‘The rising number of climate-related disasters worldwide make investing in adaptation increasingly critical. This is an essential resource for designers working at multiple scales to ensure that planning, infrastructure, and buildings are prepared for disasters’. Amy Chester, Director, Rebuild by Design‘Resilient design is essential if we choose to protect people and property from a warmer, more chaotic climate. Luckily, the path forward is clear thanks to Climate Adaptation for Architects: A Design Toolkit. With design strategies that cover the full breadth of challenges we face, every architect now has the tools necessary to design for the future we know is coming’. Corey Squire, author of People, Planet, Design: A Practical Guide to Realizing Architecture’s Potential‘Climate Adaptation for Architects provides essential knowledge to drive the crucial need to integrate resilience and adaptation into the built environment. The book is a comprehensive guide to adaptive design solutions at all scales – from materials to community scale, from theory to application. The clear organization by risk category, with great illustrations, makes the book easily accessible as a go-to guide. It should be an indispensable resource for all architects, from students to seasoned professionals’.
