Today's smart home builder looks for ideas that will make living more economical, energy efficient, and environmentally sound, but not many are aware of the psychological importance of living under daylight in rooms created with human ergonomics in mind.
Modern insulating building materials now allow the use of window and skylight areas to an extent only dreamed of by architects of ages past. The research into passive solar strategies married with modern building technology has resulted in a new frontier for sustainable design and healthful habitations.
Bright Idea Homes offer green adaptable design in modern or traditional styles to illustrate the flexibility of the Greenhouse Cap, a revolutionary idea for global green building and light-filled living. Not only does the Greenhouse Cap provide environmental and psychological benefits, but it enables a use of solar energy surpassing in efficiency anything that has gone before.
Fully adaptable to many existing roofs (flat or pitched) and to many styles for traditional or contemporary tastes, and functioning on whole roofs or parts, the greenhouse cap is a home owner's or home builder's solution for the building issues of the 21st century. For a description of this concept go to the Brainstorm tutorial below.
Besides looking through the Bright Idea home designs under Illustrations below, you may link to an online site to walk through various models and "try on" a house! Just go to the Links tab and go to Favorite Online Design Program (near the bottom). I have tried to be as clear and complete as possible in giving instructions there for accessing the program.
