Homes of the Future Edit
Self-Healing, Earthquake Proof + Homes Built From Trash


Digg this TrendStumble this TrendShare this TrendEmailthis TrendEmbed This TrendShare This Trend



Homes that address current trends seem to be the new wave of the future. We have self-healing, earthquake proof homes in Spain and houses built out of trash in the UK… these are just a couple of examples of how home builders are adapting to the ever changing lives and the unpredicatable environment of the world around us.

f you're considering investing in property overseas, it pays to think ahead about risks that may not apply at home - so perhaps you should take a look at a self-healing earthquake-proof Greek villa? Meanwhile, us Brits may end up solving our growing landfill waste issues by building homes from rubbish. A high-tech villa designed to resist earthquakes by 'self-healing' cracks in its own walls and monitoring vibrations through an intelligent sensor network will be built on a Greek mountainside.
