A solar-powered house with eco-waste management

Water and energy conservation are also vital elements of Casa Quinchuyaku by Emilio López (see more here). The house collects and stores water from existing decks, while the roof facilitates water collection and houses energy storage batteries for solar panels, which provide 100% of the electrical energy needed. In response to the intense erosion process affecting the slopes of Ilaló, the project focuses on soil regeneration, using gray water from bathrooms and kitchens for tree irrigation and implementing terraces and rainwater infiltration ditches to improve soil conditions. Furthermore, Casa Quinchuyaku incorporates sustainable waste management practices, including a dry bath system that converts human waste into compost for plants and trees, as well as composters for organic kitchen waste. This project serves as a harmonious blend of architecture, landscape, and sustainability, showcasing a holistic approach to environmentally responsible living.

#so... #my parents' furnace died three or four years ago and they haven't replaced it #(not too much of a worry as they live in a well designed passive-solar house and far enough south) #but their gas main has an issue right now and they havent been able to properly cook or had hot water in months #we think it's taking a toll on my sister's health #and my dad is refusing to fix it for non-monetary reasons #so we get to rope my GC brother into helping us get my dad to fix it #hopefully this is what gets my dad to fix it #or wakes up my sister and mom (and maybe even my GC brother) to how much of a problem he is
