Design
Our French Country architecturally designed home was inspired to incorporate the solar axis and the natural orientation of the 0.85 acres lot. Located in the Pinehurst subdivision south of Calgary, Alberta this 6000 sq ft home is surrounded by an environmental reserve and provides easy access to major highways and golf courses in the area. The home will be constructed on three levels and features a main floor master suite, waterfall features, two fireplaces, a wall-out lower level, 6 bedrooms, a nanny suite, 7 bathrooms, a media room, a wine cellar, and family/recreation rooms on all three levels. This home will also serve to provide charging systems for the electric cars and motorbikes that we produce.
Using the latest technologies, this house features solar panels and wind turbines as an alternative energy source and Lithium-powered energy for storage. While providing a zero-emission, off-the-grid lifestyle, it maintains all the comforts of home, with the integration of a geothermal system for heating and cooling.
Healthy living features provide other major advantages to our Hybrid Living Home. We will incorporate many systems and materials, to provide clean, allergen-free air. These systems include high-efficiency air filtration using UV and ionization filtration, the use of natural fiber carpets and formaldehyde free insulation. All of the paints used will be zero/low VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds), the adhesives will be water based and all materials used will be water based and chosen for their "low off-gassing qualities". Humidity in the home will be controlled to both de-humidify and add humidity as required.
