Academy
Three ways to a regenerative building.
Biotecture
Thermal mass first, passive solar second. Self-sustaining homes of local and reclaimed materials that provide comfort, power, drinking water, sewage treatment and food in any climate.
BiotecturePassive house
Ultra-insulated and sealed tight, with some or all of the off-grid systems. From single-family homes to apartments, offices and towers.
Passive houseGreen conventional
Craftsman, colonial or standard American layouts built with sustainable materials and systems. Looks conventional, performs like a Biotecture.
