Sustainable Houses

Green Homes

By : Abd. Mudeffar

Most of us are dreaming to have an elegant house with unique style and design. Perhaps, we also want our dream house to be designed by a well known architect. To be honest, elegance is just one part of a home. Today, a sustainable yet elegant house is the trend. 

 

Building a home that is sustainable, efficient and creative is now very plausible. With the advance technology that we have today, plus the full capacity of humans to work on their creative minds, anything is possible.

In fact, there are sustainable homes already built. To give you an idea, here is the list of the top 10 sustainable houses arranged from bottom to top: Casa No Gere, Fincube, IKAROS house, Crooked House, Chuckanut Ridge House, Home for Life, Ecomo Home, Westside Road Home, Hover House 3, and the Iseami House. 

These houses are not just your ordinary home. All of these were designed by well known architects around the world. What is common among these is their eco-friendly features. All are designed to be a sustainable home, generating its own power by maximizing the renewable resources in their environment. 

 

These homes are also made using recycled, environmental, and cost-efficient materials. Despite this, each architect was still able to make a house with sophisticated and unique styles that no one has ever seen.
