Building with Vision: Optimizing and Finding Alternatives to Wood
2001, Watershed Media
Preface by Randy Hayes, Foreword by Sam Van der Ryn
This book combined environmental philosophy, life cycle analysis, and dramatic visuals to detail alternatives to tree-dependent building construction. Building with Vision is packed with information and inspiration: concise overviews, original photographs, resources for further research, dozens of case studies and sidebars that encourage healthy construction by minimizing forest destruction. Over 1,000 copies of Building with Vision were sent to members of the US Green Building Council when that organization was in a formative period.
