The single-family home offers a long-term housing solution for its residents by providing access to key sustainable elements like passive design with natural cross ventilation, water reserves, flood mitigation, and backup batteries to provide off-grid support during a natural or weather-related disaster. It also served as an ideal opportunity for dense urban areas, offering an adaptable and modular design that can be modified to the available square footage.
This design integrated our Structural Panels GCT System, thermo-insulated concrete panels and additional building components which protect homes against hurricanes, high-winds and seismic activity from earthquakes, and offers fire resistance. It also integrated a number of Carmelo products which helped reinforce the structure’s durability and resistance.
