About this title

Synopsis

An illustrated guide to home planning, design, and construction demystifies the process and takes readers step-by-step through each stage in the creation of a house, including framing, roofing, window installation, and electricity

From the Back Cover

A uniquely personal, state-of-the-art guide to designing and building a home, Homing Instinct considers not only the roof, but the sky...not only the placement of plumbing, but where the first light of dawn will enter the building...not just ease of maintenance, but your home's impact on the planet. This richly detailed, forward-thinking book can help you create a house that perfectly expresses who you are--physically, emotionally, and spiritually. See how things really work, from foundation and framing, to plumbing and electricity, to selecting the right materials and products. Understand the latest construction options. Resolve questions of cost, durability, design, intent, and self-expression. Master architectural fundamentals and effective building techniques.
