By awabrams (washington, DC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Green Building Guidelines: Meeting the Demand for Low-Energy, Resource-Efficient Homes, 4th Edition (Spiral-bound)
This book is an elegant overview of the vast and growing subject of green building. It's an excellent starting point for the architect, designer, and builder who is getting his or her feet wet in the field.
Although publication of this book preceded the introduction of the National Association of Home Builders Guidelines for Green Building, it anticipates the organization and subject matter of NAHB's guidelines. (In fact, SBIC, the creator of this book, served on the stakeholder committee that helped produce the NAHB GBG.) It can therefore serve as a valuable companion to the builder who is using the NAHB GBG to build rated homes. The challenge of course will be to keep this book fresh and relevant, as the field of green building progresses at an accelerating rate. So I hope DOE will continue to fund the work of SBIC. |
