Sounds like high efficiency, but not like it isn’t truly sustainable to me.
I have looked into a lot of homes. To me a Sustainable home is energy
efficient, provides its own electricity, its own water, and vegetables.
With an option of still being tied into the water system, and having a
secondary power grid in case of situations where the primary self sustained
resources fail.
I didn’t like the plastic grass idea.
A builder wants to do things as best as they can. It seems a large part of
the focus was on energy consumption. They put into the planning a lot of
thought into size of rooms. In this climate that was a win-win because they
went beyond and built a true livable design. True sustainability and green
building is reusing materials within the local area. The builder did a
marvels job in construction and accomplishing a green building that will
stay a beautiful design for years into the future.
Awesome!! I’ll have a completely sustainable house one day 😉
I love it!!! I want to live in it!!! 🙂 Looks like my dream home. I’m all
about sustainability. We’ll see what comes up, maybe there are more like
this… but this basically has made it possible to see my dream home in the
materialized version and now it’s a matter of seeing a home like it in the
area that I prefer.
Because people don’t necessarily go onto YouTube to check out mansions.
ooh that could be cool… check out our Urban Gardener series… we feature
a few green roofs
should be but arent … who knows.. maybe the future of building?
i blame youtube. i’ve subbed to kristen dirksen’s videos for a couple of
years now and i don’t think any of their videos have ever come up on a side
panel until recently. i also sub to dwell and other style type channels.
just coming across this. dont know how long they’ve been around though.
They seemed very vague. Seemed to be doing the bare minimum too me. Things
that all houses should be force to live up to.
Not once did they mention the amount for water, electric and gas bill….
despite throwing the words green and sustainability liberally around. Want
to bet the bill is 2-3 times of that for an average home?
What a gorgeous home! I’d love to see the garden … come to think of it –
a sustainable rooftop garden in that AstroTurf area wouldn’t go astray.
haha right!! didnt even think about the huge upside.
we wont delete 🙂 hell no we wont go haha.
how much is it?! beautiful home.
Wow.
wanna it! price?
Stunning design meets sustainability…. one of the first and only LEED

Oh how I would love to have a lawn like that. I like the idea of not having
to cut it.
well we agree too!
agreed
