Submissions from 65 professional designers and aspiring young professionals were received, each one redefining how a high-performance, energy-and-resource-efficient hotel suite should look and function. The winning design came from the team of WATG, a destination design firm, who led the creative design and specification process, in conjunction with IDEO, an innovation and design firm who brought expertise on human-centered sustainability. Their suite, Haptik, a Greek term meaning to experience interactions based on sense of touch, created a juxtaposition between sustainability and luxury by redefining the guest experience without sacrificing either ideal. The nuanced subtleties of the design were choreographed around individual moments that engage the senses, allowing the guest to discover how environmental responsibility can be achieved personally and collectively. Among the innovative winning strategies were the many energy-reducing features such as an “all-off ” switch to ensure lights are automatically turned-off based on passive infrared sensors (PIS) and room conditioning equipped by a four-pipe horizontal fan-coil system. Additionally, water use was also key in reducing environmental impact as the Haptik suite includes a Trombe wall in the shower that captures solar heat to warm the shower water and a graywater irrigation system that filters and recycles shower water to outdoor gardens and landscaping.

THE COMPETITION HATES OUR GUTS Rather than building with Lumber and/or Concrete, which KILLS our environment, we manufacture and build with our own proprietary Building material(s). Our Proprietary (recycled) Building Material(s) do not cause any further damage to the environment, they are more than just Environmentally Friendly, and have SUPER ATTRIBUTES (see list below). This is Green Building On Steroids. We can MASS RECYCLE over 200 TONS per 2,000 sq. ft. built! Enjoy a Much Higher Quality of Real Estate for the same cost of wood frame! HUGE ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES SOLVED It is common sense that in order to obtain Lumber, The Lumber Industry MUST KILL trees, and in order to produce Cement, The Cement Industry MUST DESTROY the Environment. Simultaneously, hundreds of millions of tons of usable materials are currently being land filled, piled up, and basically THROWN AWAY! Now, rather than land-filling and piling up (which costs BILLIONS of dollars / year), we can manufacture awesome (recycled) Building Materials, build sustainable and energy efficient SUPER structures, and Help Save The Planet! HOW IT WORKS You Decide what and where you want us to build for you. REPLACE Wood & Concrete, period! Let your friends (and everyone else) you know about us. Maybe some of them are looking to build something and there is where we can come in. We will take care of everything from A to Z. And hey, If YOU are looking to build anything please do let us know. http://DarioBusch.com Duration : 0:3:36
Background: We took a trip to Sebastopol, California to tour the first LEED home in the world! The home was built from the ground up by Paul Rosen, Founder of North Bay Energy as well as a builder and sustainability consultant. Amazingly, the house is so energy efficient that the total annual utility cost is less that $10! Skeptical? Well we were too, so Paul invited us to tour the home while he explained all the different design features. This video was produced by buildaroo.com. If you are interested in more information about the home, contact us at contact@buildaroo.com, and we will put you in touch with the owner. And for more videos about sustainable products and companies check out buildaroo.com This video is the sixth part of a series on this home. Look for previous parts of this series, and check back over the next few days for part 7. Duration : 0:1:32
Jackie O’Neil built the Philadelphia area’s first LEED-certified house. Using techniques like solar panels, geothermal heating, and energy efficient appliances, the home relies on no fossil-fuel energy sources. Constructed at just 3 percent above cost, the experience gained has allowed subsequent homes to be constructed at no extra building cost. O’Neil is now an advocate who speaks regionally about the cost and environmental savings of sustainable home building. Duration : 0:5:5
We like this home because its energy efficiency coupled with the fact that it produces most of its own electricity during peak energy hours means that its carbon footprint is very low. In addition, this home has some really cool design elements and a stunning landscape. This episode covers the home’s beautifully and efficiently designed eco-kitchen. Some of the kitchen’s eco-friendly features include: sustainably manufactured and locally sourced tile countertops, high end durable appliances, water efficient dual drawer dishwasher, natural daylighting with strategic skylight placement, task lighting and reclaimed wood flooring. To see other parts of this sustainable home, stay tuned for the upcoming episodes of this series. If you are interested in more information about the home, contact us at contact@buildaroo.com, and we will put you in touch with the owner. This video is the second part of a series on this home.

The U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) in conjunction with the American Society of Interior Designers (ASID) and NEWH is pleased to announce the winner of the first-ever Sustainable Suite Design Competition — a competition for interior designers to showcase the best hospitality design strategies that boast environmental responsibility while enhancing guest experience. Because the hospitality industry is a large consumer of energy and water use, this competition aims to motivate sustainable practices industry-wide among newly built and existing hotels.

Paul, the owner and builder of this LEED Net Zero home, gives buildaroo.com a tour of the property’s landscaping. The landscaping in this home includes drought tolerant plants watered using a drip irrigation system and a very minimal amount of grass comprising 3% of the property compared to an average of 40% in other homes. Paul says the grass was a compromise to make his family happy, and in order to minimize water usage they chose a drought tolerant grass. To ensure maximum sustainability, they do not use any petrochemicals to fertilize the soil. Paul says that by mulching the grass, it almost completely fertilizes itself.
