Each project in this volume goes that extra step beyond meeting basic requirements to providing qualities which add texture and beauty to daily life. As but one example : the building with entire facades of double layers of glass encasing living plants within.
Photos, texts, ground plans and construction details all help provide thorough understanding of each project.
