| Introduction | As a quick introduction I would describe myself as an inventor, and from early age I found I could envision a very different world than the one I see around me. Especially I was unhappy with the urban environment and sought to find a way of living that is not cut off from nature but that draws natural energy into our daily life. My vision is that our dwellings will be living systems; a sun space where we would be constantly refreshed and sustained by creation itself. I do not see the benefit of the short sighted race to consume all the resources of the planet, while living separated from nature in our "grey zone" urban sprawl cities. And in addition, I am not enthused by conventional agriculture and find the solutions for food production that are currently practiced to be part of the problem. As an alternative, I was drawn into the idea that a transparent structure could become a dwelling that would provide natural, ecological life support and so I worked to create a controlled environment that would be a "garden home" and which would utilize solar energy efficiently. |
