Download or read book Handmade Houses & Other Buildings written by John May and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vernacular architecture, by its very nature, is built from local materials that are readily to hand and is thus defined by the geology and ecology of the region and by local climatic conditions. Constructed by the community using traditional tools, these structures are highly practical, energy-efficient, and blend with the landscape. They carry many of the attributes that we are now seeking in 'green architecture' as we struggle to adapt our built environment to the demands and concerns of the climate-change era. 'Handmade Houses and Other Buildings' looks at everyday structures all over the world, from whatever wood, grass, earth or stone that was to hand, in ways that offered practical solutions to the challenges of climate or terrain. Based on immemorial principles, but highly relevant to our newly found environmental concerns, these buildings show the simple and satisfying ways in which humans have worked out how to live - and live well, in harmony with their surroundings.

Book excerpt: HANDMADE LIVES is a cultural cross-section of a time and place still evolving: the legacy of the love generation. Inside the handmade houses, of Canyon California 1967-74, the flower children fully flowered and grew their own rebellious and poetic children, who turned away from the unrestrained experiments of their parents, yet took their understanding from them. HANDMADE LIVES is a collection of 44 intimate narratives, which detail the life of a small California hill town, that burned and rebuilt, that fought the water company and won, and in the process made worldwide news in the late 1960s. "They lived our dream!" sayeth the white rabbitt.
