Exploring alternatives. Connecting with Gaia. Growing the future. Building community We dream to embody fully those terms in the near future, in a world where housing is a business, most homes are designed to be dependent on centralized/industrialized systems to have access to basic resources and function. Requiring constant input from the grid, conventional housing can only satisfy part of human basic needs. Housing is a major part of human life and needs to shift to a new paradigm if people in industrialized country wishes to return in a balance with Earth. To shift we need a home that takes care of itself and most importantly takes care of us. Imagine a home that fulfill our basic needs is self-sustainable, built with natural/recycled material and is powered and heated by the sun. The Earthship inspired homes are one amongst many types of alternative homes that are complying with those requirements. When a building is autonomous it can be disconnected from the grid, freeing its inhabitant from the constant need of input that conventional home need to function and instead providing resources like food and truly clean water. This completely change our relationship with the building we live in. We are developing this vision with a lot of dedication for the last couple years and are now ready to make it happen into physical reality.
