ArchitectureWeek Description This book suggests that locally available materials result in more durable and beautiful houses. It urges designers to consider the source of wood, stone, clay, and straw and suggests that this awareness contributes to our perception of character in a finished house. Building naturally also gives us the feedback necessary to be conscientious environmental and economic stewards and allows us to play a meaningful role in the creation of a dwelling.
