    Hardback. Condition: Very Good. Sustainably built single-family homes don't have to be ugly. In this book, architects and homeowners share their perspectives on the interplay between ecology and contemporary architecture. For anyone who is in the process of building or renovating a home, sustainability is a critical issue --especially since energy is likely to remain costly for the foreseeable future. Choosing to use resources responsibly makes as much of a statement about a home as the selection of floor plans, building materials, or furniture Ideally, our homes should be sustainable and look good at the same time. Building Better showcases single-family homes from around the world whose architecture proves that sustainable and attractive are not contradictions. The book's selection of outstanding, top-quality work provides feasible examples for a new generation of homeowners with a discerning sense of style and environmental responsibility. The spectrum of featured projects ranges from energy efficient restoration and the construction of intelligent extensions to the planning and building of new low-energy or passive homes. The book introduces the latest building forms and materials as well as case studies examining the best division of space, architectural planning, and the use of innovative technologies to control and improve heating and air conditioning. Consequently, Building Better not only provides a striking overview of the topic of sustainable building, but also insightful information on details from technical data to blueprints In the book, both architects and homeowners have their say Families talk about their ideas, desires, motivations, and real experiences. Against this background, Building Better is both a practical and inspirational guide for anyone who sees sustainability not as limiting, but rather as a creative opportunity. As such, it is an essential reference for everyone who wants to build a better home.

    Hardcover. Condition: As New. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen. Es gibt sie, die guten Laden! Handwerklich orientierte Fachgeschafte, die an vergangene Manufakturen anknupfen, erleben ein Comeback. Sie trotzen dem Onlinehandel und bieten tolle Produkte, originelle Ladeneinrichtungen, innovative Store-Konzepte und vor allem freundlichen, fachkundigen Service. Von Papeterie uber Barber Shops bis hin zu spezialisierten Geschaften fur Kaffeemaschinen und Fischrauchereien dokumentiert das Buch diese Entwicklung. Eine neue Store-Kultur zwischen Tante-Emma-Laden und modernen Metropolen breitet sich aus. Engagierte Ladenbetreiber, die ihre Kunden personlich kennen oder kennenlernen mochten, findet man in Stadten wie Berlin, Beirut, New York und New Hampshire. Die Grunder und Betreiber haben ihre Geschaftsideen oft aus personlichen Leidenschaften entwickelt und bieten eine Vielzahl von Produkten an, von Blumen uber Vintage-Brillen bis hin zu speziellen Tees. Viele Familienbetriebe erstrahlen in neuem Glanz und ziehen mit sorgfaltig ausgewahltem Sortiment und gutem Service die Aufmerksamkeit junger Kaufer an. Diese Ladenbesitzer sind oft die eigentliche Attraktion, und der Kunde ist hier wieder Konig. Das Buch fordert das Bewusstsein fur authentische Einkaufserlebnisse und zeigt, dass es sie noch gibt - die besonderen Laden, die im Internet nicht zu finden sind.

    hardcover. Condition: Acceptable. Please see the condition note after this for details, if this is missing please consider Acceptable to mean poor quality that could include major staining, water damage, writing, missing dustjacket, etc etc. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

    Hardcover, 240 pages, ENG. edition, NEW !, Full color, Including an index. ISBN 9783899555127. In the book BUILDING BETTER. Sustainable Architecture for Family Homes, both architects and homeowners have their say. Families talk about their ideas, desires, motivations, and real experiences. Against this background, Building Better is both a practical and inspirational guide for anyone who sees sustainability not as limiting, but rather as a creative opportunity. As such, it is an essential reference for everyone who wants to build a better home. For anyone who is in the process of building or renovating a home, sustainability is a critical issue?- especially since energy is likely to remain costly for the foreseeable future. Choosing to use resources responsibly makes as much of a statement about a home as the selection of floor plans, building materials, or furniture. Ideally, our homes should be sustainable and look good at the same time. BUILDING BETTER. Sustainable Architecture for Family Homes showcases single-family homes from around the world whose architecture proves that sustainable and attractive are not contradictions. The book?s selection of outstanding, top-quality work provides feasible examples for a new generation of homeowners with a discerning sense of style and environmental responsibility. 1750 g.
