The ZeroHouse is “a 650-square-foot prefabricated house designed to operate autonomously, with no need for utilities or waste connections. It generates its own electrical power, collects and stores rainwater, and processes all waste. Shipped to a site on two flatbed trailers, it can be field-erected in less than a day.

In addition, two elevated exterior terraces and an outdoor shower extend the living spaces.” (via off-grid.net).
