As the institute is located on a biologically diverse peninsula, the architect sought to keep its impact upon the site to a minimum, and the house had to be completely self-sufficient and off-grid because no utilities could be brought in.
The building is support by 2 micro hydro turbines that generate 800 kWh per year and a roof top solar system that generates 10,800 kWh annually for the main power plan. A solar hot water system heats hot water for the residents and visitors of the institute.
The hybrid energy system provides enough power for Casa Iseami as well as the caretaker’s and maintenance housing and the existing lodge for the institute’s participants. In addition to the use of renewable energy, solar passive design was employed by using large overhangs to provide shade, orienting the home to maximize natural ventilation, and installing skylights for daylighting.
