This ambitious concept of Self Sufficient House by architect Iana Kozak should be build in the city of Dnepropetrovsk, Ukraine. Each house cell will be from 2 to 5 floors high. As the dwellings upon the trunk does not occupy a lot of space, it creates a free space for a parking or recreation. The outer covering is made of natural cellulose that can absorb and store woter. Double walls with a membrane enable to take advantage of hydrostatic pressure and provide a natural thermoregulation. A leaf-like structure that should cover each roof will produce oxygen and filter the air.
