The House that Ben Built

 



West Sussex woodsman, Ben Law, completed his outstanding house, using sweet chestnut from his own woodland, with the aid of 96 volunteers, over a 7 month period in 2003. ‘The Woodland House’, Ben’s latest book, offers a practical and inspiring guide to house design and construction and an intimate view of Ben’s woodland home.  The rare spirit and beauty of the build is captured in 92 colour pages.  Ben generously shares his experience and insights, dreams and achievements, and hard earned lessons with humour and clarity. This is a beautiful book and an invaluable handbook on low-impact construction and dwelling.
