This book provides insight for designing spaces that utilize natural elements, leave a smaller footprint on the environment, and creating more functional designs in smaller spaces. Many people believe that a larger square footage will provide the best opportunity for design but this book argues that a smaller space is just as effective and can even be a better space for design. It is a great book for designers and design enthusiates that would like to see alternatives to manufactured designing. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

There is a lot in here that is really good but just the smattering of "new-age" ideas (like aromatherapy .....with its emphasis on essential oils ....which can trigger off significant allergies in some people) to make me a little cautious in recommending it. Also it suffered from now being a bit dated. Solar energy and wind energy have advanced in a major way since this book was written 1n 1989...and this shows. Though I've since noted that there are newer editions out. Another thing that rather struck me was the cold climate bias throughout the book, despite having an Australian consultant involved. Yes there is a bit there on outdoor rooms and outdoor bathing etc., but I was struck by a heavy emphasis on heating and the hearth....which I guess, reflects the background of the author (and probably his main audience). But a lot of sound and timeless architectural advice throughout. I rather liked the book overall. So three stars from me. ( )
