Designed by Italian architects Iosa Ghini Associati, these houses being developed alongside Pedieos River, near Nicosia, Cyprus, integrate easily into the Mediterranean landscape. These are four single family luxury units. It is joined by smog eating photo catalytic concrete and a flowing fusion of glass. Thus a series of separate yet structurally connected spaces is created. All houses are based on adjustable solar panels, a heat storage system and rainwater recycling provides the clean energy to power up the building.
Locally harvested stone is being used and the smooth structure is composed of material containing active agent which reacts with light. This breaks down air pollutants like carbon monoxide, benzene and nitrogen oxide. With low emissive glass the interior is insulated and the rainwater recycling system and solar panels cut down on utilities. The temperature is regulated during twilight. So with all this features it pays to Go Green.
