The house incorporates a mini ecosystem with fish and plants outside while adjustable solar panels maximize energy efficiency throughout. The panels are capable of tilting to various degrees to make best use of the sun's position.

The design works if you like a lot of orange and while. A Murphy bed makes the most of the house's limited square footage by allowing the bedroom to quickly transform into an office. And minimized water and electricity connections sequestered into one location increases efficiency. An added bonus: it made transportation from the island a whole lot easier.
