The leading industry association's handbook for going green in
the kitchen and bath
Kitchen & Bath Sustainable Design is the National
Kitchen and Bath Association's complete guide to "greening" these
important rooms. The first book to focus exclusively on kitchen and
bath sustainability, this full color guide covers every
consideration for both remodels and new construction, making it a
handy reference for any kitchen and bath professional. Case studies
of award-winning projects demonstrate how space, budget, and
sustainability can come together to create beautiful, functional,
efficient rooms, and illustrations throughout provide visual
examples of the techniques discussed. The book includes information
on greening one's practice for the client's benefit, plus an
appendix of additional resources and instructional materials for
classroom use.
Outside of general heating and cooling, kitchen appliances use
the bulk of a household's energy. Kitchens and baths together use
an average of 300 gallons of water per day for a family of four,
and both rooms are high-use areas that require good air quality.
Kitchen & Bath Sustainable Design provides a handbook to
designing these rooms for sustainability, without sacrificing
comfort or livability. With comprehensive guidance on approaching
these rooms sustainably, readers will:
* Communicate better with builders, clients, and potential
clients
* Understand technical considerations, and the criteria that make
a design "green"
* Conduct a full design analysis, including life cycle costing
and efficiency
* Learn the ratings systems and standards in play in the green
kitchen and bath
The biggest elements of sustainable interior design--energy
efficiency, water use, and materials selection--are all major
players in the kitchen and bath. Clients are increasingly demanding
attention to sustainability issues, and designers must be up to
date on the latest guidelines, best practices, and technology.
Kitchen & Bath Sustainable Design is the complete
technical and practical guide to green design for the kitchen and
bath professional.
