Two-storey dwelling construction employs full-size baseplate cast in excavated ground surface level to take all elements and services shielded externally by shaped earth mounds.

摘要

A large area baseplate (1) covering all buildings, services and functions of the construction unit is cast by cutting away and removing the top ground layer so that all elements can be erected on this and protected from outside subsequently by earth mounds (9) and with the baseplate level with the plot site surface. The individual cellar rooms have outside mounds of different height, the mounds to be of right angle triangle shape to take service pipes (10) to deliver solar heat to an accumulator (3). The light shafts (11) stand open to the front and at a slant.
