Inspired by Nature, LEED, Living Building and BPM

On planet earth - 2 out of 3 people are living in poverty conditions

- 1 of each 5 people do not have access to drinking

water. Wars will be fought about water

- Human population will grow to 9 billion by 2050

- Human population might grow to 15 billion by 2100

- Before or after 2100 more than half of the human

race will be exterminated, stabilizing around 5 billion.

Caused by depletion of resources by humans

By the 20th of August of 2014, humans will have

used all resources this planet can produce in

one year time.

By the 17th of august 2015, we will have used all

resources produced by the planet next year.

Humanity will be confronted with 4 major problems:

- Energy scarcity

- Water scarcity

- Food scarcity

- Waste and pollution

House powered with HIT

solar panels

All new electronics are Energy Star label A+.

A solar boiler saves you a lot of

energy

All 1st floor windows are double glazed for less heat and more safety.

(LEED)

All windows provide access to air and natural

light (Living Building)

The entire house uses natural ventilation (LEED + Living Building)

All exterior walls were made with Eco blocks that insulate the house

against heat. (LEED)

All rooms are downstairs

Energy savings

Inverter air conditioner and fridge

All lighting is LED

Avoiding environmental pollution by open copper mines, all pipelines for

water are made with PEX-A

All toilets and faucets are water saving type (LEED)

Energy saving and water capture

Applied roof paint* reflects 90% of sun rays and increases the energy efficiency of the house up to 35%

Flat roof. Storm water is being captured for re-use in the garden or to overcome months without water supply. 9000 Liter

* Energy Star rated roof paint

Part of the terrain is dedicated to agriculture (Living Building)

Food safety

From the red list of chemicals that you should not use in your home, we avoided 13

out of 14. (Living Building)

All indoor paint is cero (0) VOC and all outdoor paint

is Low VOC (Volatile Organic Compound)

The chemical storage area has open

ventilation to protect indoor air quality

(Living Building)
