| book description |

This volume celebrates 32 innovative homes from around the world that transform rooftops into lush, living landscapes. From Tokyo to the Hamptons, these houses blend architecture and nature to redefine sustainability. With rich historical context and striking contemporary examples, the book explores how green roofs cool homes, nurture biodiversity, and heal landscapes. Visionary architects from Studio Arthur Casas to Guz Architects demonstrate how green design elevates aesthetics and environmental consciousness. With stunning imagery and insightful texts by James Moore McCown, this volume is a vibrant tribute to homes that don t just sit on the earth they grow from it.
