Int'l Trend Setter™ - Blog - ZeroHouse Eco Home of the Future, Now!

ZeroHouse generates its own electrical power, collects its own water, processes its own waste products, and is completely automatic. Conceived by architect Scott Specht, AIA, zeroHouse has everything you could ever ask for in a modern, green home. Designed by architect Scott Specht and going for around $350,000, ZeroHouse is an off-grid, modern dream. It's prefabricated and the design calls upon a helical-anchor foundation system that touches the ground at four points, withstanding winds of up to 140 mph. The helical-anchor foundation makes the zeroHouse suitable for sloping locations or sites with water up to 10-feet deep. The solar system stores energy in an onboard bank of batteries, which can sustain the home for a week without sunlight. Another cool feature of the home is its "hibernate" mode, which conserves power while maintaining the necessary electrical functions. Now this is proaction and one very cool home.
