Crowther, R L

A survey of architecture and its relation to the natural environment is presented. A holistic design approach is presented for use in design and construction that reduces inflation, creates a more healthful and vitalizing environment, deploys capital more effectively, increases savings in residential and commercial architecture and construction, and increases cash flow by reducing money spent on utilities. Holistic design also creates a cohesive urban texture.
