Roundwood Timber Framing: building naturally using local resources is filled with detailed colour photographs and drawings, this unique and practical ‘how to’ book from permaculture woodsman, and ‘Grand Designs’ star, will unquestionably be a benchmark for sustainable green building.



Since building his famous Woodland House from his own woodland, as seen on Channel 4's Grand Designs, author Ben Law has evolved his own style of natural building, now tried and tested on many other builds across England. Ben has built houses, workshops, a classroom, lean-tos, a shop and a store to industrial specifications. Whilst this style’s origins can be found in traditional forms of building, Ben has developed an entirely new vernacular using many innovative ideas and techniques.
