The material is extremely durable, has self cleaning properties and is 100% recyclable. Because of its light weight, the roof can be lighter than the air inside.

the shop is a throughput of visitors
in the new situation, visitors of the Vrijbuiter will visit the garden and vice versa
at the moment, all energy used to heat up and light the building is lost because of the poor insulation, the gas bill is high
the shop will be heated by biogas and rest heat from Steenland Chocolate. the heat-energy has a second use in the garden, and has a much smaller loss because of the insulation capabilities of EFTE.

climate concept The indoor temperature will be 21 degrees celcius, all year round. Because tropical plants need a higher humidity than Vrijbuiter products, there will be a humidity division between the two levels.
backpack
Water that condensates on the EFTE cushions will move to its lowest point, where it will drop into the roof construction which doubles as a drain.
