THE IDEAL SITUATION “ Imagine a building, enmeshed in the landscape, that harvests the energy of the sun, sequesters carbon and makes oxygen. Imagine onsite wetlands and botanical gardens recovering nutrients from circulating water. Fresh water, flowering plants and daylight everywhere. Beauty and comfort for every inhabitant. A roof covered in soil and sedum to absorb the building’s verdant footprint. In short, a life-support system in harmony with energy flows, human souls and other living things. Hardly a machine at all”
