(6) Mona Vale Headland Coastal House by Jared Zettl
This coastal house is located in Australia and was built by Choi Ropiha Fighera Architects. It was built as a sustainable house with amenities that one would expect to see. The first is a north facing skylight that allows light to enter into the house heating up the thermal structure in the winter. Next that can be seen are the photovoltaic solar panels to make this house more energy efficient. Lastly, the house has a rainwater storage system combined with grey water recycling in efforts in reduce water waste. The water is used for toilets, gardens, and even heated flooring. Sustainable housing is an efficient and environmentally friendly solution to conventional housing, unfortunately the construction cost is a little more, which diverts people away.
