Publisher's Synopsis

Vernacular architecture, by its very nature, is built from local materials that are readily to hand and is thus defined by the geology and ecology of the region and by local climatic conditions. This book looks at everyday structures all over the world that offer practical solutions to the challenges of climate or terrain.
