Housing Thoughts

Housing is influenced by many items, including culture, status, energy-efficiency and location.

TO start, tell me what size your house should be, in a range of 50 to 10000 sq. ft.

Determine the heating you would use, and whether it is a contributor to the greenhouse effect

Tell me any passive solar features you would use in the building.

How many bedrooms would it have?

What air circulation features would exist?

What insulation features would use, including an approximate R-value for the walls, windows, and ceiling?

Where would it be located?


Keep a list of resources used, including people, web sites.   Turn in a sketch with the notable features in a format of your choice.  This is due on Tuesday.
