Spanish House
The spanish house generates power from the sun.
Self-sufficiency
The house generates power. It also has a water battery, rain water
collection, desalination and sewage treatment facilities, making
it entirely self sufficient. A photovoltaic grid pays back the
energy used during construction. Security and privacy are incorporated
into the scheme, and the spanish house looks out majestically over
the Bay.
Accommodation
Accommodation is divided by storey with self-contained guest accommodation
at ground floor level. The main Living and entertaining is at first floor level with the master
bedroom suite and a private sun-terrace is on the top level. All the principal
rooms enjoy uninterrupted views. The house
will be built largely from rendered local clay blocks, timber and glass, with the thick
insulated walls containing sea water tubes for summer cooling.
