This is a superbly illustrated source of inspiration for architects looking to create truly sustainable projects. Creating a truly sustainable architectural project is a hugely complicated, yet extremely rewarding challenge. One in which architects must take into account not only the immediate impact of construction and the types of materials used, but also the continued effect of the project on its environment, and the suitability of the mechanical and technological systems used within the project. Superbly illustrated with full-colour photographs and detailed architectural plans and drawings, Ecological Dwelling brings together some of the latest trends and innovations in sustainable architecture, providing architects with and indispensible source of inspiration.
