The town of Proctor, MN offered a competition for a sustainable home that could be used as a model for home design for future Proctor residential design projects. This home utilizes a water collection system, photovoltaics, tankless water heater, local railroad ties, natural ventilation, and many local materials. The goal of this design was to sell a sustainable lifestyle at an affordable price. A unique feature of this design is the option to add an additional garage door on the north side of the garage. With this configuration two smart cars would be able to fit into the garage.
