Studio 804 off the grid education

Studio 804 at University of Kansas School of Architecture and Urban Planning  is a design/build experience for students in their final year.  So in 2 semesters students are expected to finalize designs and then carry out the building process for an off the grid house. They re-used materials from an old ammunition plant, installing grey water recylcing, solar panels, wind turbines and geo-thermal heating and cooling.  The school has been conducting these classes over the last 10 years with many accolades from their field.  What an incredible education for these future architects to build in a conscious and eco friendly manner.  If you are interested the house is currently for sale...
