From the Back Cover

Harmony with the environment and conserving natural resources come up more frequently on the wish list for dream homes. From around the world, the 33 homes presented in this book show that glamour and green architecture can be ideally combined. The spectrum of approaches range from hi-tech energy- and resource-saving solutions and industrially prefabricated modules, to traditional building methods and local materials. Moreover, all of them successfully work with the climatic and geographical conditions of their surroundings. The spectacular experience of nature up close, comfort beyond compare, remarkable design, and a clean conscience all come together in Ecological Living.
