Introduction: Camera-ready green design -- City -- Suburb -- Mountainside -- Waterside -- Desert -- Tropics -- Anywhere -- Featured architects -- Resources.
Summary: In their international survey of contemporary house design, the authors herald the emergence of a new architecture - one that is as aesthetically compelling as it is environmentally friendly. Leaving behind the clunky, mud-caked constructions of the 1960s and 1970s, the more than twenty-five remarkable residences featured in The Green House not only tread lightly on the land but also provide exalted spaces in which to live
