"Your books are in the bunch of the best books I have read in my life. I see all the work, etc. that caringly and carefully went into doing these most valuable books. My challenge in my geography is to get the systems to work where it can be minus 20 to 25 degrees C...economically. Need to do the math first. One step at a time, right?" —Ted, B.C, Canada
"...really enjoy your writing style, graphs and diagrams, and the accessible and entertaining way of presenting information that could otherwise be boring at best in the hands of a different author. I will often laugh out loud and my wife will glance over at the book I'm reading and then give me that “have-you-had-your-medication-today” look…Great stuff, thanks for sharing and for all your good work!" - Deron Thompson
"Your greywater books are the stuff of legend." - Michael
Oasis
Design is a wellspring of decades worth of original designs and content which you won't find
elsewhere.
We specialize in the nuts and bolts of sustainability—practical systems for living well, in harmony with nature and each other. These include designs for managing water, wastewater, energy, money and other resources.
Our goal is to live really well, on a small amount of well-managed resources, and help others do the same.
There are several hundred pages of free information here on our web site, as well as an additional several hundred in our books and articles. Besides the hundreds of interlinked pages below, there are dozens of "easter eggs" which serve as hidden portals to our site, each baited with uniquely useful content on this or that obscure topic.
...and all this is the published 5% or 10% tip of a much larger unpublished iceberg.
We hope you enjoy your visit, and find something which helps you thrive.
Yours, The Oasis Team
