Omschrijving

Design your own sustainable home

Many people dream of building a beautiful, environmentally friendly home. But until now there has been no systematic guide to help potential builders work through the complete process of imagining, planning, designing, and building their ideal, sustainable home.

Essential Sustainable Home Design walks potential homebuilders through the process starting with key concepts, principles, and a project vision that will guide the house to completion.

Coverage includes:

How to clarify your ideas and create a practical pathway to achieving your dream
A criteria matrix to guide design, material, and systems decisions
Creating a strong, integrated design team and working with professionals and code officials to keep the project on track from start to finish.
Key building science concepts that make for a high-performance, durable building
Primer on building logistics, material sourcing, and protocols to ensure that the initial vision for the project comes to fruition.
One-page summaries and ratings of popular sustainable building materials and system options.

Ideal for owner-builders and sustainable building contractors working with clients aiming to design and build a sustainable home.
