Living in a greenhouse: One family's experiment in sustainable living
Essentially an oversized greenhouse, the house was built to explore sustainable methods of living and will serve as the family's full-time home for three years.
Scholten and family moved into their new digs in June 2015 and will be living in the home full time until 2018. The 135 sq m (1,453 sq ft) dwelling is officially dubbed the CHiBB (Concept House Institute of Building and Business Administration) House, and is based within the Concept House Village in Rotterdam, an initiative exploring innovative housing concepts in a bid to develop new sustainable housing.
Structurally, the house comprises a timber frame with a huge greenhouse-like glazed area up top. Its interior includes three bedrooms and a home office. In addition, a generous rooftop vegetable garden is used to grow most of the family's greens.
