This book takes you through 53 homes that reflect the growing trend
for environmentally friendly houses. Resource- and energy-efficient
residences are designed to be healthy, comfortable, and easy to
live in, and construction of a sustainable home includes using less
energy, fewer natural resources, and fewer toxic chemicals. The
homes featured here meet a variety of guidelines: LEED, a
point-based system with specific certification criteria; green, a
construction standard based on reduction of energy use; Passive
House, a design standard that can result in a super-insulated,
airtight home; and natural, a type of construction using natural
resources without technological intervention. More than 300 images
show a wide variety of designs and styles, including cottages and
beach houses, prairie and vineyard residences, prefabricated and
renovated homes, and much more.
