Green Building Illustrated Illustrated Edition

This book represents a stunning and impressive effort in explaining green design concepts and specific methods in ways that are visually pleasing, and instantly accessible to both designers and non-designers alike. The clarity of the explanations are impeccable, and the illustrations are spot-on. The chapters logically progress from design principles, to context, siting, shape and then individual measures, materials, technologies and practices, so it could be read fully-through, and/or used as a reference. I'd highly recommend for anyone in the building industry.

Frank Ching is one of my best authors and this book shows elocuently his splendind style, skills and knowledge page by page. Excelent.

Can never go wrong with anything Francis Ching puts out. Always well researched & the most informative illustrations.

The layout of the book is fantastic and illustrations are very clear. As I’m looking for a textbook I would have really appreciated a Questions for Discussion section. A lot of good detail in some sections with very little detail in other sections (ie water).

The item arrived on time and as expected

Disappointing after Ching's other really excellent book.

Great author and book

Great book!
