Description

"In this pioneering book, Daniel Williams provides the sort of intelligent, thoughtful, experienced insights that if followed will ensure that we make the right choices. It should be on the desk of every architect in the world." - Denis Hayes, president and CEO of the Bullitt Foundation and coordinator of the first Earth Day in 1970.

Sustainable Design: Ecology, Architecture, and Planning is a practical, comprehensive guide to designing and planning a built environment compatible with the region's economic, social, and ecological patterns. In this book, Daniel Williams challenges professionals to rethink architecture and to see their projects not as objects but as critical, connected pieces of the whole, essential to human health as well as to regional economy and ecology.

Written for architects, planners, landscape architects, engineers, public officials,and change agent professionals, this important resource defines the issues of sustainable design, illustrates conceptual and case studies, and provides support for continued learning in this increasingly central focus of architects and urban planners work. Williams' book features winning projects from the first decade of the AIA's Committee on the Environment (COTE) Top Ten award program.
