responsibility

Deliberately slender, the building footprint encourages cross breezes through the house.

Positioning the front door opposite back doors encourages breezes as in traditional southern "shotgun house" layouts.

By lifting the house off the ground on piers, air can also circulate below the house.

Minimizing the air conditioning requirements reduces the energy cost, consumption, emissions, and the owner's financial burden.
