"The first question to answer should be: what is an ecohouse?
Eco-architecture sees buildings as part of the larger ecology of
the planet and the building as part of a living habitat. This
contrasts with the more common notions of many architects,
who see a building as a work of art, perhaps on exhibition in a
settlement or as ‘frozen music’ in the people-less pictures of
glossy magazines. Some architects see the process of design as
a production line with the building as a product to be deposited
on a site, regardless of its particular environment or qualities. You
will see from the case studies at the end of the book that
ecohouses are closely connected to their site, society, climate,
region and the planet."
