About Yoga House Sustainable Building
Yoga House is a sustainable house designed as a passive solar earth shelter. The building covers 224 square meters and is made of natural and upcycled materials. Thermal mass construction and natural ventilation regulate the indoor temperature. Solar panels and wind turbines supply electricity, while rainwater is harvested and stored for long term use. An organic garden allows food to be grown on site. The mainly single story layout is freely oriented on the terrain to preserve all existing trees and to open favorable views.

- Unique Properties
- Earthship structures are intended to be off-the-grid ready homes, with minimal reliance on public utilities and fossil fuels. The building is constructed to use available natural resources, especially energy from the sun and rainwater. They are designed with thermal mass construction and natural gross ventilation to regulate indoor temperature, and the designs are intentionally uncomplicated and mainly single story. Special attention is paid to landscape and visual analysis and the ability to adjust the angle of placement of the building to open the most favorable view prospects.
