An outdoor care retreat outside Oslo provides space where visitors can benefit from the therapeutic qualities of nature; a residence in Tottori, Japan, adapts with the changing seasons; a treehouse in Cape Town uses cylindrical towers that are elevated on stilts, offering views among the trees; and in Quebec, three geodesic domes were designed as part of an eco-tourism project to highlight the area's natural beauty. Each house is paired with photographs and plans.

Summary:
The stepped terraced house is a type of building that meets modern housing requirements: it is economical and offers ample living space with the comfort of terrace and garden. Rising to popularity with the advent of new social movements it was forgotten with the progressive erosion of the new ideas of society and relegated them to obscurity or even to their disqualification as eyesores. Yet the enduring satisfaction of residents and ecological advantages of green houses make terraced housing as attractive as ever. The buildings studied in the book are not only architectural icons today; even today, one can still learn from them about what residential buildings need. One proponent of this building style was Harry Gluck; part of his text pleading the case for a green city is printed here.

Riche d'informations accessibles, cet ouvrage aborde tous les aspects techniques et pratiques de la conception de maisons en milieu tropical. Il présente dans un premier temps les prérequis nécessaires à la compréhension des enjeux (climat, chaleur, confort tehermique...) et évoque les solutions de l'habitat traditionnel. Il dégage ensuite des solutions actuelles destinées notamment à protéger les bâtiments et leurs occupants du rayonnement solaire et de la chaleur extérieure, tout en privilégiant des approches bioclimatiques et respectueuses de l'environnement. La viabilité économique des solutions dégagées est évoquée, ainsi que les avantages et faiblesses des matériaux en fonction du contexte, de référentiels et de normes en vigueur. De nombreux exemples illustrent ce que peuvent être des bâtiments adaptés aux réalités locales, des réalisations avant-gardistes de Jean Prouvé à celles d'architectes d'aujourd'ui, en passant par des projets spécifiques intégrant les préconisations dégagées au fil du livre.

The authors genuinely believe that cabin time has a remarkably positive impact on our health, wellbeing and our happiness. Whether it's a rustic cottage nestled deep within a Nordic forest, a robust mountain lodge in Montana, a breathtaking treehouse in Canada, or a steel-walled, one-room "hotel" in Denmark, these retreats share one vital aspect in common: they proffer the chance to escape and to and live in harmony with nature, far from the madding crowd. Part style bible and lifestyle manual, the book features a collection of classic and contemporary cottages and cabins, each accompanied by an informative design profile and photographed images. You'll find relevant information about different types of dwelling styles, builds, sustainability/off-grid living, tiny homes, renovation on a budget, room zonings, decor and everything in between.
