“Earth Home uses the sun to heat the home, heat water, cook food and to generate electricity. Clean rain water is collected and stored for drinking and bathing. Kitchen and toilet waste is composted to rich fertilizer for the family garden.”

 

Style is the synthesis of experience, innovation and design. Imagine a home designed around you, your family, and the way you live. You talk, we listen. Ideas, thoughts, issues, concerns, and costs, all of it gets considered in the design process. Out of that process, your home will emerge, a vivid, vital expression of who you are, giving your home a unique style you can call your own.
