"Sustainable Housing Projects takes a wide, conceptual approach for sustainably-built projects, which allows an integrated approach to the various stakes and stakeholders. Such an approach is particularly suitable for a medium scale level, involving neighbourhood development, and a number of examples on this scale level are included." "This book presents knowledge gained over the last 15 years developing new sustainable housing projects in the Netherlands. It is written by a team of specialists in sustainable building, both practitioners and researchers, and is meant for colleagues world-wide, who want to implement a sustainable building project."--Jacket
