The main pictured on looks pretty goofy, especially because of the bright green, but this sent me down a youtube rabbit hole of seeing a bunch of reallymawesome house tours.
Side note: I find 'new build ecofriendly' architecture liks this awesome, but wonder a lot about adapting existing homes which is surely the most environmentally friendly option. If you were to go all out on making an existing home solarpunk, what would that look like?
I think they're pretty interesting, but they have so much manual labor involved :/
That's almost a selling point, albeit a painful one. You can build these for cheaper than a stick frame, if you have the physicality and time to do so. Otherwise its going to pricier.
Specialization of labor is how we can accomplish what we have as a society.
Yo I just saw a real estate listing on one of the islands near Vancouver Island for one of these. If it wasn't a million dollars and isolated from pretty much everything, I would definitely be tempted!
Wow you weren't kidding, it's very isolated. It would be cool to see it in person but that's very far from everything.
I thought this was funny
Excellent access to freeways and major arteries, with a vast amount of parking nearby.
