Cornell Solar Decathlon Home

After the CUSD Zero Energy house took second place in the prestigious 2005 Solar Decathlon contest, it was sold to a private owner, and moved to a small town outside of Ithaca, New York. The current owner, a Cornell professor, loves the house and gives daily tours to teach principals of energy efficiency to the community.

With a blog focused on modern homes in New England, I thought it was worth mentioning that our firm (in the inhabitat article above) is designing several modern homes throughout the area and is based in Charlestown. Our founders designed and built the 2005 Cornell Solar Decathlon House, are working on the 100k house (as mentioned elsewhere in this blog), and have a couple of very modern homes going up on Cape Cod (including a net zero energy home).
