Abstract

Hanham Hall (Bristol) and Derwenthorpe (York) are two newly built eco-villages, and BedZED (London) is a famous environmentally friendly housing development project built more than 10 years ago. From energy-saving technology, ecological landscape, building combination and open space design, and architectural appearance and space design, this chapter analyzes these aspects of these eco-villages' features and advantages. It then sums up how the eco-village or eco-residence will benefit from good architectural design (indoor) and excellent community design (outdoor). It emphasizes the importance of the architectural design, economic, and ecological technology application balance. Furthermore, the article pointed out the eco-community's requirements and features: social, environmental, ecological, livable, and sustainable.
