This book is a how-to manual for designing sustainable residences for human wellness. While the commercial market has embraced these principles, the residential market lags behind.

Residential designers work much more intimately with clients and are attuned to specific and individual needs. This book enhances that approach by also supporting them in making sustainable choices throughout the design process and providing the resources to make this an integrated part of the design process form start to completion. Case studies such as those from CIRCLE Design Studio and architect, Ken Wilson of Perkins&Will are used to demonstrate the application of principles. This book takes an inclusive view of wellness, providing information on Universal Design, the importance of designing for all people and abilities, including older occupants for ageing in place.

Including information on residential programming, space planning, materials, building systems, energy and water efficiency, this will be a helpful and complete guidebook for all residential designers and students of residential interior design and architecture.
