Architecture Design of The Earth House

Description About The Project

The Earth House designed by Art and Architecture Associates to aim reducing carbon footprint, this house aims to inspire people to practice a sustainable lifestyle. Indeed, the essence of the house focuses on demonstrating the built environment’s opportunities for addressing the global climate crisis. Also, the architect explained they had taken a conscientious decision to weave in nature through their effort to construct a net positive home composed of rammed earth together with other natural materials excavated from the site.

Earth House located in the middle of expansive farmlands. The 3000 – square foot residence aims to blend seamlessly among its habitat and natural environment. It also features a building skin, thick with earth walls that minimize solar heat gain. They keep the temperature seven to 10 degrees cooler than the outside in the tropical climate of Gujarat.

On the other hand, as for the layout, Earth House has a simple one with three bedrooms and living spaces separated on either side with the leisure space of a pool and a gazebo. It has an optimum building size and leaves a minimal footprint on the site area. The house also features an inclined roof that captures maximum solar energy to replenish and produce electricity for the place.
