The following video tour will give you a good feel for this home:
You can be the first owner of this brand new earthship. While
there are advantages to owning any brand new home, with this earthship you have
the additional benefit of having the most recent technology. This home
features a blend of tried, trusted, and proven earthship concepts along with new
advances based upon many years of earthship construction.
The picture above shows the earthship as of late February 2007 as seen from
the hillside above the home. Here you can see the following:
1. The trench in front of the home is the black-water planter. It
lies between the septic tank and final leach field and is capable of growing
small trees or a lawn area.
2. The double greenhouse wall contains gray water planters, a walkway,
and also provides insulation for superior climate control.
3. The "attic" plenum provides superior skylight ventilation while
reducing cold weather drafts.
This side view shows the entrance to the living room on the right and
entrance into the double greenhouse on the left. Cisterns lie to the right of the doors.
Picture this area in the greenhouse filled with flowers, vegetables and other
attractive plants. Doors and operable windows connect this room to the rest of
the home so that heat can be let in when needed, but shut out when it is too
warm.
Looking out the living room doorway, the east mountain view provides vistas
and morning light.
This picture shows the kitchen area as viewed from the living room. The
home comes with a Sun Frost DC refrigerator (The large white rectangular object
at the hallway entrance). A propane stove oven, sink and prep area with
overhead cabinets make a very functional kitchen. Notice the detail work
such as the glass tile backsplash and beautiful flagstone floors. Listed
price includes all furnishings including the flat panel TV!
This view shows kitchen form another point of view. The gray
water biocell planter sits at the far left. The windows bring in light and
views through the double greenhouse to the hillside beyond.
The next area behind the kitchen wall is the laundry area with a door leading
to the bathroom. The water efficient washer and dryer shown here come with
the home.
The bathroom with a complete
tub and shower lie beyond the laundry area. The glass-block tub and shower
area provides light and privacy for privacy from the greenhouse area.
The view above shows the bedroom looking out to the greenhouse. The
door provides easy access to the greenhouse area and allows control of heating
and cooling by opening to the desired level.
This view of the room area shows the entrance for the attic plenum area.
The green boxes on the top are the top skylights that open into the attic area
raised above the roof and ceiling. They sit directly over lower skylights
that bring light into the rooms below as well as provide cooling when needed.
The open area also serves as storage space which is accessible from both sides.
The raises area of the roof also provides the slope for the solar panels to take
maximum advantage of the sun for power.
