Sick of your neighbors filing complaints against you for playing music too loud, when, in fact, those same neighbors are guilty of the same thing? (Whoops! Sorry, jerk neighbor!) Then you need a house, like, say, the ZeroHouse, which is not only entirely prefabricated but also entirely self-sufficient, just like a castle. Its equipped with solar panels for electricity generation, large specially treated windows for free solar energy (heat), insulation left and right, etc.
This interests me for several reasons. One, I’m done with New York and stupid apartments. I want a big house on the big side of town (32 seconds in), preferably where the temperature outside doesn’t dip below 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Two, since ZeroHouse generates its own electricity I can leave my various monitors and lights and speakers on all day with no qualms. And I’d have no neighbors around me. Peace of mind is precious.

This would be perfect for me, living in Southern California! I saw this a while back and loved it. (Really cool oven in the kitchen.) I want this house!
Here in Hawaii, I think it would take off and fly. Our tradewinds would destroy it.
looks sweet!
get somebody to do the landscaping & yardwork and i’m in!
Hey guys–I would love to see more of this kind of tech.
Just sayin’.
Did anyone happen to cath any kind of estimated pricing for this. I went searching but was never able to find anything about it. I love the idea of a totally self sufficient house. Would be good here in Florida with all the sun we get.
