A few more interesting details about the house: The fridge is cooled by air coming underground through foundations, the house uses solar panels for lighting, music and computers, it gets water by gravity from a nearby spring, it collects roof water in a pond, for gardening etc.

Simon Dale has built a sustainable eco-house for his family without any prior experience in carpentry or architecture.
