A concept

The idea behind The Desert Living House is that it is built with everything integrated into it such that it will Live. It will be a living, breathing, growing structure, not separate from the earth. So often structures make to misguided choice to view the earth and its forces as something to be defeated. the earth must be interfaced with. this concept can be taken and applied to any location on the planet given sustainable local resources. the ideals of this house are not just aimed at human centered livability, but also at teaching a healthy lifestyle, serving as a model of idealism and realism in built form, acting as a habitat to benefit the environment, sequestering carbon and tying up reclaimable materials. it will serve as a foundation for life rather than a capsule of death. Houses are designed to remove their inhabitants from outside interaction of any sort. The Desert Living House will welcome interaction, maximize on outdoor living, and Attract the unconvinced.
