The spacious unfinished space for additional storage and/or workshop houses the mechanics of the home. Other unique features of the home include a metal roof, solar panels to support the 115 gallon water heater and radiant flooring system, a "living roof" (often referred to as a green roof) which serves a natural biophilic extension of the home providing aesthetic value while offering environmental benefits (better storm water management, thermal insulation, and keeps the home warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer) and straw bale insulation paired with stucco which is a highly sustainable -carbon neutral construction method that deliver excellent thermal performance.
