off the grid homes

Whether for a weekend, longer vacations, or permanent living, off the grid homes offer a convenient solution to live in the middle of nature. Disconnected from urban settings and often built in hard to reach areas, these dwellings are also designed with sustainability and environmental responsibility in mind. They feature solar panels that generate electricity, water collection and recycling systems, as well as passive heating and cooling systems. Here you can read more about some of the most creative and ingeniously designed off-the grid retreats and homes completed by accomplished architects and designers from all over the world.
