Eco House Plans contains more than 300 floor and elevations plans, as well as constructive details of 36 ecological architecture projects.

Having a house distributed on one level is going for comfort and something that gives a special personality to the house.

One objective of this book is to study the budget for each individual project in terms of construction methods and materials.

This book explains this new direction in architecture, so that in a few decades what may now seem extraordinary will be commonplace. It is a method to build or renovate close to what may eventually be known as bioconstruction - a building system with recycled or recyclable, low-environmental impact materials, or materials that can be extracted by simple processes at a low cost. This book takes a room-by-room look at the house, from the living room to the bathroom and the garden, all trying to preserve materials so that they have a longer life. We give priority to environmental and technological measures in the design phase of a home that save water and energy.

House Plans for Challenging Sites features more than 350 floor plans, sections, sketches, and elevations, as well as construction details of 35 housing projects which represent a true challenge for architects, either because of their topography or the geological composition of the soil. These homes are designed to integrate into the landscape and minimize environmental impact, since they are mostly located in beautiful, ecologically diverse, and natural settings.
