Freda: Our current house — my dad’s house in green, blue and brown Mendocino County — is full of future food: seedlings growing on an old ping-pong table in the solarium, chicks growing in an old aquarium in the kitchen.
Four Architects Design the Green House of the Future
The Rios Clementi Hale Studios Home is an edible house, combining architecture and food production with ease. A rooftop reservoir collects water, while helical turbines and solar panels generate on-site energy. The solar panels and living facade provide shade and insulation for the interior, and owners literally harvest foods from their walls for consumption. The home is built of prefabricated containers, which can be moved at any time. (via wreckandsalvage)
