Publisher's Synopsis
Ecological architecture entails multiple factors within the construction process of a home and the impact that construction will have during its life-cycle, from its planning, execution, and use, until its demolition. Residential ecological architecture takes into account the specific needs of the people who will inhabit each home. The following pages show a wide variety of sustainable and ecological resources: from recouping traditional architectural solutions like cross-ventilation and taking advantage of natural light, to new insulation and self-supplying energy systems.
