Homing Instinct: Using Your Lifestyle to Design & Build Your Home
"This is the only book to show you how to approach the design and construction of a home thats affordable, durable, environmentally sound, well-sited, beautiful, and, above all, specifically tailored to your needs." A uniquely personal, state-of-the-art guide to designing and building a home, Homing Instinct considers not only the roof, but the sky ... not only the placement of plumbing, but where the first light of dawn will enter the building ... not just ease of maintenance, but your homes impact on the planet. Written by leading architect John Connell, founder of Yestermorrow Design/Build School, this richly detailed, ford-thinking book can help you create a house that perfectly expresses who you are physically, emotionally, and spiritually. The only book available that expertly combines both design and construction how-tos, Homing Instinct helps you: See how things really work, from foundation and framing, to plumbing and electricity, to selecting the right materials and products; Understand the latest construction options; Resolve questions of cost, durability, design, intent, and self-expression; Master architectural fundamentals and effective building techniques.
--Michael J. Crosbie, Senior Editor, Architecture magazine (from the Foreword).
