Fire-resistant House Prototype
This fire-resistant house prototype was designed with the extreme conditions of the Camp Fire in Paradise, CA in mind. With special attention to fire resistant roof and eaves, as well insulated metal window shutters that can be closed during a wildfire, residents in some environments may be able to shelter in place during a disaster and will be well-equipped to live comfortably during any interruption in the power grid. This is truly the home of the future, providing safety from the risks of climate change while doing its part to reduce carbon emissions. It offers all the daily benefits of a passive house, with the added security of fire-resilience.
