Description

Homes for a Changing Climate explores traditional and contemporary responses to the challenges of climate and illustrates the many ways in which houses can be designed, built and adapted to cope with the challenges brought by climate change. Examples are drawn from across Europe - from the dry volcano of Thera to the 100mph winds of the Western Isles - and from cutting edge eco-building projects in Britain. Combining inspiring case studies, striking photography and practical advice, Homes for a Changing Climate is a book of imagination and hope in difficult times.
