The E+ Green Home is a striking example of eco-friendly residential architecture. It features a hilly aesthetic that is perpetuated by its [grass-covered walls and roofs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/earth-villa). Mixed with wooden and [solar panel elements](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/florian-busch-architects), the E+ Green Home is as environmentally conscious as it is good-looking.

Designed by UNSANGDONG Architects, the E+ Green Home is located in Kyeong Gi, South Korea. Although it has a very organic aesthetic, it is interesting to note that the E+ Green Home is also comprised of a slew of [geometric shapes and angles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/neville-park-residence) that add a dynamic touch to the overall design. According to the designers, "E+ Green Home is defined as a new energy plus sustainable house by synthesizing all the optimized green technology and a string of intelligent energy saving system."
