Eco-Resorts is a design guide for low impact, environmentally friendly tourist resorts in the tropics. The book is the first to offer architects practical, detailed guidance in developing resort buildings that work with a tropical climate and meet the needs and expectations of the client and building inhabitants. The book includes both architectural design and material solutions, supported by theoretical principles, to present a sustainable approach to resort design. It demonstrates that tropical resort buildings do not necessarily require large energy input, in compliance with green building standards. Case studies show how principles of sustainable design have been successfully applied in tropical environments. * Written by an industry insider with practical design experience, knowledge and expertise. * Demonstrates design practices related to site planning and layout, and re-assesses best practices for a tropical environment, allowing architects to apply design principles to their own projects. * Includes international case studies from several countries to illustrate best practice from a variety of tropical climate destinations around the world. Z (Zbigniew) Bromberek, PhD, is an architect educated and registered in Poland, and postgraduate-educated and residing in Australia. Z has been practising and teaching architecture for nearly 30 years. He has been involved and associated with various educational institutions and professional organizations in a number of countries around the world. Before the current appointment as Senior Lecturer in Architecture at the University of Tasmania, Z spent three years as Lecturer in Environmental Design at the University of Queensland, and two years as Guest Professor in Architectural Design in Nanjing, PR China. He was also the President of the Architectural Science Association ANZAScA for three consecutive terms in 2000–05. Z’s major research interests include design–environment interaction, low-impact architecture and re-integration of architecture as an expression of a multi-disciplinary approach to design.

Vastu Shastra is basically one of the important traditional sciences that proposes principles of proper architecture. The book, "Amazing Principles of Vastu Shastra" is based on the study of the authors dealing with construction of traditional dwellings, especially the Indo-Aryan houses. In this research it was observed that structure of the houses mainly follow a similar module regardless of the wealth of the owner; a module which is very close to the principles proposed in Vastu Shastra science of architecture. The universal principles of Feng Shui as another example of the sciences dealing with proper architecture can also be traced in the construction of such traditional houses. However, during this study, a number of differences between the practices introduced in Vastu Shastra and Feng Shui were noticed which are believed to be due to the differences in environmental configurations and cultural behaviors, especially regarding the knowledge of directions, slopes, etc. Therefore to have a thorough knowledge of the best energetic formation for architectural spaces, it is highly recommended to also study the book "Fabulous Principles of Feng-Shui."
