Architecture

This book brings together the best designed, best-looking and most functional eco houses in the world today. Built to make maximum use of resources, reduce their impact on the environment and improve the quality of life of their occupants, green homes are no longer only an option available to a few environmentalists; they have currently become one of the strongest design trends in modern architecture. This book features houses made of local materials, natural resources for air-conditioning and active systems such as photovoltaic panels, to mention a few. All the projects are an example of stylish, durable and sustainable architectural solutions.
