OUR GOAL: UTILIZATION OF ALL NATURAL RESOURCES
Water Conservation: The basic shelter unit provides a roof design for collection and storage of rainwater for potable use and grey water flushing system option. Plumbing system will use water generated by kitchen, laundry waste in toilet flushing and food production.
Recycled Waste: Through composting will be used as resource for food production.
Utility Module: Energy produced through bio-mass to be backed by renewable source from wind power and solar. Hot water production will be generated from solar panels.
