Eco Garden-Home

While browsing the internet today, I stumbled upon a rather interesting project. It's nothing new, nothing too special and nothing revolutionary, but I find it rather good looking and practical. What I am writing about, is a prefabricated mini-home/office, that is meant to be installed in a garden or some other minor ground plot. Earlier in my blog, I wrote an article about mobile pre-fab homes, which I ended with writing that I most likely might write about some of the projects in seperate articles, so here is the first.

The house is designed by Eco Space Studios and it varies in sizes, from 15 square meters to 28 square meters. The little house has different variations, in which you can personally choose extra details such as, weather the house should have a bathroom, a mini kitchen, a mini second floor with bedroom, a shed, etc. There are many combinations, and if the standard choices aren't enough, you can even create custom versions of the house through contact with the architects.

So what's so eco with this house? First of all, the roof of the house isn't no traditional roof, it's covered with small plants, such as grass and mosses. Its entire facade is made of sustainable cedar tree, the interior as well, is from tree, besides the flooring, which is made of special rubber material. Besides the quality materials, the walls, floor and roof are all isolated with A-Class isolation, making sure that all heat within the home, stays in the home, thus saving extra coins on the energy bill.

Practical, economic and ecologic is what this home is, and with prices from only £18,950, it is more than worth the money for friends of the environment who can live in small spaces, or for those who just seak a garden-getaway, where they can work in peace, or just relax.
