Reviews

“Green Design is a choice pick for those who are truly dedicated in reducing their impact on the planet.”
—Midwest Book Review"Exploring the most cutting-edge, worldwide architectural design, Green Design is a beautiful perplexing collection of sustainable strangeness and eco-oddities.… While much of the book is occupied with genuinely feasible efforts at eco-solutions, much of its charm is in those ideas that use the environmental brief to create stylish, eccentric pieces."
—KUDOS Magazine“The book is a carefully edited and crafted catalogue of beautiful things...I love almost every page of it."
—Treehugger.com“What I particularly like about this book is that it doesn’t feel like someone is bearing down on you to be an environmental junkie. It educates you about some of the more creative green concepts out there.”
—Holiday Matinee“By presenting existing green innovations as well as visionary projects, Green Design paints a bright future in which technology and ethics merge for the benefit of people and the planet.”
—New Consciousness Review

“In case you haven't noticed, the "green" movement is gaining steam around the world… This book looks at how many things in our lives can be or are designed with the environment and our health in mind.”
