Summary |
"This episode shows how the traditional indigenous habitats conform to the modern concept of green architecture. Taiwan's tribal villages boast houses built with natural resources, such as stone slabs, which provide a cool and bright environment with good ventilation. Greening does not stand for blindly applying all the high-technologies; instead, the core of ecology is making the best use of local sources, bonding the natural environment with housing." -- China Post website |
