Truly Intelligent Housing

The materials we use in our everyday lives are crucial to the future of our beautiful planet Earth. Concrete is incredibly energy intensive to manufacture and seriously overused in our modern building techniques. Today I share a wonderful project built in the high Apls, dealing with high snow loads - intense cold and occasionally powerful sun! All this achieved using minimal amounts of concrete only for foundations and using wood skillfully as structural component thoughout this build - many highly intelligent techniques are shared in this excellent installment from the brilliant Kirsten Dunsten.
