The first model covers and space of 25 square meters and one of the particularities of this design is that it has mobile spaces: on the day this space of 25 square meters could be a workplace and in the night is a comfortable two bedroom space.

Nano house counts with a great technology to not harm the environment. One of this features is that it is powered entirely by passive solar energy (Renewable and free) and also Nano House seeks to decrease de amount of CO2 emissions. Then, they realize that Nano House can be presented in other models than in the 25 square meters, and they develop the 60 square meters home, and it counts with built-in furniture and minimalism decoration. Moreover its readymade solar panels, Nano house counts with a system for rainwater catchment, green roof and structural insulated panels. Another particularity is that the windows of this house are passive solar collectors installed in a way that in winter’s month they will be able to absorb heat meanwhile in summer they will avoid the heat of the sun.

Another sustainable feature of this house is the use of cross ventilation system that enhance the quality of the air, and in conjunction with the intelligent windows and the ceiling panels, the house works to keep a good temperature inside it naturally and without the use of any heater or contaminant. For instance, during the daytime, the walls will absorb and retain heat, while at night, the walls will release this stored heat to keep the house warm.

Nano house can be built in just four days on site so it also diminish the contamination of the building process and it can be constructed up to eight stories high without any need for extra steel framework

Nano house is the perfect example of sustainable architecture because all of its features were think to not harm the environment, is the perfect example of technology made looking forward the wellbeing of the environment, and this has to be the architecture of the present and the future, an architecture that allows us to live with de nature without harming it.
