Hunter's comment

And you thought I only knew how to find expensive products. Hah!

Although it may take a while before you make any ROI from your own Fab Lab Solar House.

Unless you charge an entry fee for everyone who wants to visit the solar house which doesn’t look like having solar panels on it.

And is made entirely from wood. And self-sufficient.

Rather than making solar houses, we can create self-sufficient habitats that are able to produce energy, food and other goods
Vicente Guallart, Architect Director del IAAC

Best of all it can be built in 15 days only. And has the world’s most efficient flexible solar panels yet.

Oh... did I say already that it looks awesome to boot too?

And is cheaper than the average watch I hunt.

 

If... you go tiny.

Great hunt @fknmayhem! This hunt has been verified and approved by the Steemhunt Moderation Team. Great job! Happy hunting.

I like the direction the solar panel design is going - flexibility in this case or even foldabilty like I saw the other day on steemhunt.

And the interior looks like a nice cosy place ot live in.

Advancement in solar panel tech in recent two years has vastly increased the efficiency of light capturing.

The new gen panels finally allow flexible panels which are as good, or better even, than the common standard panels.

While it is still super expensive (the small Fab Lab house is €45,000 and smaller than the average “tiny house”) self-sufficiency is finally possible. Or selling more to the grid lacking Elon’s battery storage solutions (Solar City, now TESLA owned).

As we say so often here on Steemhunt: the future is now.

Great hunt! It's really nice and eco-friendly house. I think what makes it impressive that it need just 15 days to build. It's amazing. Thank you for sharing.

Pros and Cons
Pros:
-Solar energy powered house, very environmental friendly
-Relatively cheap for the housing unit

Cons:
-The placing of the house should be far from moist or flooding

Cons:
-The placing of the house should be far from moist or flooding

You know, I love the products you hunts. You’re a great hunter.

But you absolutely suck at writing pros/cons. Every house should be far from flooding but when it comes to the point... wood floats but stone sinks.

Have you noticed how high the flooding needs to be to actually reach the living area?

The house is designed to be part of a whole ecosystem, a natural self-sustaining habitat. I actually highlighted that in the hunt’s description, highlighted it with a quote.

Pros:

  • relatively cheap for the housing unit

It’s 45,000 Euro for the small model. That’s five times the average price of a usually slightly larger “tiny house”.

TL;DR: since pros/cons are not required anymore to receive an upvote... skip that format and just comment your opinion, ideas on each hunt. They will be more appreciated. ;)

Having a solar house is a dream come true, help the environment is priceless and this house is super economical and quick to build in just 15 days you can start to live, great hunting

Those who already know me know that all these initiatives that involve taking care of the environment, I love them, it is possible that I find the design a little strange, but in the end it is something futuristic, I also like their comforts, it is quite complete, I think it is great.

This solar house is very interesting
Here's my personal opinion
Pros :

  • solar energy powered house
  • can be built in 15 days
  • cool design

Cons :

  • expensive

What a different design. Maestro is a product manufactured in a short time. I think you've found a great hunt. An advantage of environmentally friendly feature. Thank you.

I will love to live in a house like this and the ideea that is self-sufficient makes it like a dream come true. Eco-friendly solution are the future, there is no question about it!

based on the picture given, it looks like so cool to visit, simple yet beautiful, and the best thing is it is powered by natural resources thats what makes it more ecological.

@fknmayhem, what a cool design. And built in 15 days with solar energy, how interesting. Sure would like one of these as it looks comfy.

The design is so amazing, It is a very awesome House. I think I am not able to take rest in this house. Lol, Thanks for sharing.

Wow. You are amazing. It is a very cool house. and it has a beautiful design. I think it will expensive. too

Amazing hunt! Lots of houses on the market that shout solar but thats not the case with this one. Feels like a house from wonderland:)

This is gonna be my home when i am rich haha, looks awesome and solar powered, thank you very much for your hunt~

That looks like an art installation. I wouldn't want to live in that house, though. I might end up having to deal with strangers wandering outside and inspecting it all the time. Lol!

Charging entrance fee to visit seems a great way to make some back on the initial investment lol.

Haha. That's true. Then, put souvenirs for sale, and you're set.

Nah, make it a fair trade and fair trade labor respecting organic coffee shop/vegan ice cream stand/vegan restaurant. #EPICWIN #THANKYOUHIPSTERS😬

Lol! That's a business model right there!

I know, right.

Especially if you can do it in SoCal. That’s a ticket #tothemoon.

This just had a lot of functionalities! Yesterday was a solar window, and now, its indeed a solar house! Super awesome!

Solar windows are still an enigma.

Advances in solar panel tech may make translucent solar panels almost as efficient as the actual common panels. While the most obvious case, it wouldn’t yet be commercially viable to retrofit them [on office towers]. I think we’re still five to eight years away from that.

Yes, probably. More specifically in my country. :( But I do still have a lot of hopes! <3

Same here. Due to lobbying and collusion [ugh] the government is actually “against” solar tech.

Yet this is an archipelago of +7,000 isles and if you want to you can live topless almost yearlong. 🤷‍♂️

Amazing about this house is that it is self-sufficient. But it comes at a price (cost of the solar panels with the new, 3x as efficient tech, is prohibitive).

What many people don’t know is that the common solar panels installed today have very low efficiency. The new advancements and soon standard is still super expensive but will make a huge difference over the lifespan of an installation since whether people can achieve self-sufficiency or they can sell much more back to the grid.

The latter because we are still waiting for Solar City, now TESLA, storage batteries. But rumor has it that TESLA doesn’t excel at high volume production.

Soon in the future, they will realize how important and effective it is. I am really encouraged by having this one than making those very huge houses which in no return by I believe is super duper pricey!

When I use the #iwantthat tag... I want that. ;)

Governments know it matters but it’s collusion to use a popular term. Collusion of conflicts of interest... somehow they better themselves by abiding the power of money and bending over to lobbyists.

Woww! I'll gonna try that tag also but in a different term, #ilikethis. Hahaha

Yes, I agree with you. We do have a lot of different perspectives!

Feel free to use that tag too. LOL

I wondered how long before somebody would actually start using it. So far I saw only few hunts which wasn’t me and with the exception of one hunt, it all were pretty much valid ‘iwantthat’ products.

this solar house is so cool and the design just very elegance. This is another level of solar house and I believe it will be more efficient in generating clean energy

this is another amazing reason why i love this platform because i keep seeing amazing hunts like this,this solar house is innovative and i love the way it was designed uniquely...

I would rather have a house which is like than a really big one. This is so cool!

@fknmayhem heclente find, I really like the architectural design, I see it very practical, I am surprised by the short time in its manufacture which is very positive and its solar panels more effecient than there is
Congratulations excellent hunt
I wish you a happy hunt

I would def have this house, even if not solar efficient:) Looks lovely.

Congrats on a great hunt @fknmayhem

Woww! Really an impressive hunt! Imagine your house is an electricity generating house? Hmm

Solar is getting more and more implemention. The short period that this one can be built is deffintive plus. And it is self-sufficient. Defetly can find use for a weekend house.

awesome hunt

In a world where non-renewable energy is depleting and also amounts to environmental pollutions . Fab lab house is the answer ,it is beautiful and provides energy uninterrupted without any environmental constraint.

Best of luck

I like this house brings a strange model but if the time from a point of view that we like to hunt unique objects, it is fantastic my personal opinion is great great hunting

Thanks, @jccr. To be entirely honest... I was surprised the Fab Lab House wasn’t hunted yet.

Yes, even mods sometimes don’t see all hunts. 😅

Great solar Fab lab !

cool design

This house is cool and very unique

more like Noah's ark to me..!
only it uses solar tech and can't float

It’s beautiful, isn’t it?

Great hunt for sure @fknmayhem.
