  2. the only Architects building earth friendly or energy eficient buildings are individuals ,regular architects work on regular principles ,and all of them mix for example the grey water with the sewage ,thus making the sewage water 5 times as much,grey water      should be sa seperate system that goes straight into gardens not sewers .

    there are many examples of efficient design but they are all revolutionary and is done by pioneers .

    Earhships has a great following check them out

    so does Permaculture

    the Permaculture designers manual by Bill Mollison,which cost about 40 dollars.

    and is the best all round book you can get,on Environmental design,.(tagiari publishing, tagariadmin@southcom.com.au)

  3. I'm not sure what you mean by "sustainable" but if you look at the work of Frank lloyd Wright, I think his designs were way ahead of their time and incorporate nature in their design.
