DESIGN IS INCREDIBLY RESPONSIVE TO THE ENVIRONMENT AND PEOPLE IT WISHES TO SERVE. HOWEVER, CONSIDERING MANY OF TODAY'S STRUCTURES ARE ROOTED IN WASTEFUL INDUSTRIALISATION AND RAPID URBANISATION, SUSTAINABLE AND FUNCTIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FOR HOUSING ARE BLEAK. CONSEQUENTLY, BRINGING CONSCIOUS AWARENESS TO THE CONCEPTS OF SUSTAINABILITY AND FUNCTIONALITY WERE THE MOTIVATIONS BEHIND THIS TINY HOUSE PROPOSAL. THEORETICALLY, THIS MODEL COULD BE EXTRAPOLATED AND IMPLEMENTED ON A LARGER SCALE, CREATING SUBURBS FILLED WITH TINY HOMES, WHICH WOULD NOT ONLY SOLVE PROBLEMS SURROUNDING CONGESTION IN CITY CORES, BUT ALSO WITH AFFORDABLE HOUSING. THE DESIGN FEATURES PASSIVE HOUSE CONSTRUCTION STANDARDS WITHIN THE BUILDING ENVELOPE AND UTILIZES RENEWABLE  ENERGY THROUGH THE HOME'S UNIQUE VIRIDIAN SOLAR PANELED ROOF SYSTEM. THESE SYSTEMS REDUCE THE COST OF THE HOME OVER TIME AND WILL BE THE STANDARD FOR SUSTAINABLE HOUSING IN THE FUTURE. FURTHER, PLACED IN THE LANDSCAPE OF THE KOROWAI - TORLESSE TUSKLANDS OF NEW ZEALAND NEAR LAKE COLERIDGE, THIS HOME EXTENUATES THE MEANING OF "OFF THE GRID" LIVING  AND PRIVACY.
