	Dominic Stevens did a version of a Segal House in Ireland, with a great website (IrishVernacular) showing how in detail. The website has been down for years but I have collected the contents of the website into a PDF for anybody reading who is interested in a hardcopy. Dominic won't mind for what it's worth, he setup the website in the first place to spread the word and even wrote a book explaining he understood himself as having a debt to the community which was why he documented the build and webbed it.

		+	The info is great and most welcome. I'm also delighted to find people here endorsing the open web type culture that used to be more common online. So much of Segal's writing seems to be hidden behind paywalls or foreign libraries. But for us nerds, this stuff is actually going away, for good.

	I'm looking at the Segal method to produce a really low-impact, inexpensive, environmentally advanced (e.g. solar panels on sloping roofs) series of buildings around a proposed lido. Do you know if anyone else has used the method for anything other than housing? We need changing rooms, a cafe, probably some sort of plant room. I'm pretty confident I could design it but it would help persuade the local authority if there are existing examples. Any help/advice would be gratefully received. Thank you.
