| Vivienda's Estate embraces an architectural design and energy
plan that is a seamless blend of traditional design and environmentally
conscious, scientific principles. This complementary approach is
encoded in the very nature of the design, whereby the house
automatically renews its own consumed energy through a process of
systematic recycling. Waste is treated as a precious resource and not
simply an unwanted byproduct to be reduced, minimized, or avoided.
Vivienda's Estate nurtures the
environment and strives to produce more energy than it utilizes –
an ideal ecosystem – and achieves this by maintaining an ongoing
cycle and flow of energy that continues to move so as to constantly
unlock its potential in a beautiful natural setting. This methodology
serves to integrate human creativity, mindfulness, and a host of
technological advances to create a physical structure that resonates
with the healing powers of nature.
While the design of the building evokes the
soulfulness of a home that has been inhabited by many generations,
significant effort has been made to incorporate into the design an
environmentally conscious and sustainable infrastructure. |
