We will now look at a home located in the US state of Louisiana which, apart from the location, the house has a beautiful design that will surely turn heads while it is also sustainable and has a spacious surrounding showcasing nature\u2019s beauty. Its story was told by Homedesignlover.com<\/p>\n
They call it the Pond House and has a lot area of 1,250 square foot located in Hammond, Louisiana. It is a net zero energy retreat located on a 15.5 acre site where a three-story structure sits over the edge of a pond. And since it lies at the very heart of nature, since the completion of the house, it has been generating energy instead of consuming it, designers say. This house design is a proof that even sustainable and energy efficient houses can be a comfortable, luxurious places to live in.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s look at the design first which reveals a 14 degree inclined main volume and a single-sloping roof that sheds rainwater into the pond while allowing maximum sun exposure for solar panels. The house is located near the pond which provides a panoramic view from the inside thanks to the transparent walling which completely opens the interior to the space outside. At night, the three-story volume comes alive with the glowing lantern that emerges from the landscape as it magically illuminates the water.<\/p>\n
