Pretty Good House provides a framework and set of guidelines for building or renovating a high-performance home that focus both on its inhabitants and the environment—but keeps in mind that few people have pockets deep enough to achieve a “perfect” solution. The essential idea is for homeowners to work within their financial and practical constraints both to meet their own needs and do as much for the planet as possible. Plus, now available from Emily Mottram and the authors of Pretty Good House, check out The Sustainable Home Building Accelerator e-learning series. This intensive, interactive online series of courses is designed to rapidly advance your knowledge of sustainable home design and construction.
