Franklin azzi architecture designed 'passive house', through renovating a former
hunting house in normandy, france. the extension consists of wood, canvas covers
a camouflage of the cuban army. Above is a wooden terrace overlooking the valley.
Slabs of the house to the left and right include a heated floor and external industrial
sockets. In front of the house is a bunker made from concrete for an office.

The project meets the requirements of high environmental quality as it includes
rainwater collection, the use of solar energy (hybrid) and geothermal energy, and reduction
of raw material by optimizing the efforts to structure. The assembly of the structure was done
on site with all recyclable materials from a distance of 100km. wood and vegetable fibers
are used for the walls providing insulation and windows provide natural ventilation, etc.
