We often gripe about green buildings that have “no edge, no, buzz, no style” often “populated by the self-righteous and the badly dressed” Italian architect Luca Lancini practices sustainable architecture exclusively, and his Fujy House definitely has style. He realises that there is more to sustainability than just systems and materials, it must have:
Goodness: social and environmental awareness
Beauty: choice of contemporary languages that meet aesthetic and functional requirements
Benefit: the ability to create plans at competitive costs with low maintenance and operating costs
Passive solar, certified wood, careful ventilation and non-toxic recycled materials don't hurt. Fujy House via ::archidose
