This article is more than a year old and may contain information that is out of date. Sorry about that.
This Belgian passive house was completed in 2014.
The home was designed to react to heat and regulate its own climate – the exterior was given a dark tint, and the metal structure completely detached from the skin to form an insulating layer.
