Filled with full-colour illustrations, here is a showcase of the latest trends and developments in Eco-housing. With the rapid developments in renewable resources over the last few years, environmentally-friendly housing is no longer the pipe-dream of a few radical architects and ecologists, it is now a firm reality. "Small Eco Houses" is a superbly illustrated volume that showcases the latest trends and architectural solutions for eco-housing. It also explores how research into alternative materials and new ways to apply traditional prime materials have paved the way for a whole new range of design options that mean aesthetics and comfort no longer have to be compromised to achieve sustainable development.
