Recensioner i media

"Environmental sustainability is not about current fashion; it is about timeless principles.  Avi Friedman lays out a comprehensive set of principles for sustainable home design that will be of interest to both students of architecture and the curious public. His case-study-based approach appropriately focuses on small, urban projects.  After all, what is more green than urbanity, and how much house is enough?"---Brian MacKay-Lyons, Prof. of Arch., Dalhousie U and Principal, MacKay-Lyons Sweetapple Architects
