ArchitectureWeek Description This book offers a method based on peer-reviewed scientific findings for developing sites in harmony with natural processes. The method can be used in conjunction with LEED, EPA, and other guidelines; it features a rating scheme that weights each development and land use practice based on its environmental benefit and difficulty of implementation. The straightforward, step-by-step, illustrated system, which focuses on land rather than buildings, is accessible to nonexperts. Amazon Customer Average Rating:
