Lindsay Johnston Sustainable House Off the Grid

The Four Horizons Sustainable House by Master Class Convener Professor Lindsay Johnston has been published in the recent book 'Prefab Design', by Josep Minguet (Instituto Monsa de Ediciones, Barcelona). It has also been in 'Off the Grid' by Lori Ryker (Gibbs Smith, Utah, USA) and 'Stahlarchitektur International', by Veronika Lenze and Klaus Th. Luig (Deutsche Verlags-Anstalt, München, Germany). The house has a prefabricated steel 'fly' roof, to neutralise the heat of the sun, over two habitable modules. It is powered by photovoltaic and water heating solar, harvests rainwater and has been the subject of complete thermal and energy audit, including embodied energy and life cycle analysis. www.ozetecture.org
