The thing about buildings and land-shaping is that they are the longest-term statements about who you are and what you value.You can change your garden every year, rearrange your demographics over the course of a decade, but most buildings last at least 30 years. For most of us, the designs of our community and major buildings are the the largest, most permanent things we'll ever manage. So we may as well do them with our eyes wide open, so that they're telling a story we're proud of.
The 14 articles in this bundle give you an overview of how to read what your land is telling you, how to use materials at hand to build beautifully and sustainably, how to work creatively with zoning restrictions, and how to live and build in harmony with your natural environment.
