Roundwood Timber Framing : Building Naturally Using Local Resources, Hardback Book

Roundwood Timber Framing : Building Naturally Using Local Resources Hardback

Hardback

Description

Since building his famous Woodland House from his own woodland, author Ben Law has evolved his own style of natural building, now tried and tested on many other builds across England.

Ben has built houses, workshops, a classroom, lean-tos, a shop and a store to industrial specifications.

Whilst this styles origins can be found in traditional forms of building, Ben has developed an entirely new vernacular using many innovative ideas and techniques.

Filled with detailed colour photographs and drawings, this unique and practical how to book, is unquestionably a benchmark for sustainable building.

Roundwood Timber Framing encourages communication between woodsmen, planners, architects and builders, and helps to close the loop between environmental conservation, use of renewable local resources and the regeneration and evolution of traditional skills, to create durable, ecological and beautiful buildings.

Ben is a now a much admired figure. His previous books have sold extremely well and this book, with its highly original and fascinating contribution to design and build, is set to capture the publics imagination and desire to increasingly learn traditional crafts.
