Now that green building is a household term and most everyone knows a little something about it, lots of people are wondering how it all works, and how to put sustainable ideas into practice in their own homes.
In order to answer some of these questions, Inhabitat started a new weekly series called Green Building 101, written and edited by Inhabitat's team of LEED-accredited designers. Every Wednesday for the next 10 weeks, there will be a column focused on one aspect of the new LEED-H rating system for homes (currently in pilot phase), with tips and suggestions in addition to some fundamentals.
Yesterday kicked the series off with an article on LEED-H's first tenet: Locations & Linkages. The remaining articles in the series will all be found here.
