Abstract

A concise tour through the principles of eco-design, illustrating each with examples of vernacular dwellings from around the world. Also describes how these principles can be integrated into the design of a modern eco-house, backed up with examples and details from built and tested experimental houses. Some of the sections are extremely up-to-date; for example the chapter on photo-voltaics include information on national grid pricing policy, installation costs, as well as specifications for the necessary hardware. The book culminates in a series of illuminating case studies.
