The Park House is a project by Ushida Findlay Architects located in Preston. The Park House will boast a number of other eco-friendly features as well, including [solar power](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/urban-ecological-design) and the abundant usage of sunlight through windows and skylights. The Park House will also be built using materials sourced locally, and its signature green roof will only feature indigenous plants. Each of the five homes in The Park House will have four floors, and the complex will include shared recreation spaces. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.8/10 - Popularity: 35% | Activity: 70% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Eco-friendly Rooftop Designs:** Design innovative rooftop solutions that combine sustainability and aesthetics. - **Integration of Solar Power:** Explore opportunities to incorporate solar power into housing complexes for environmental sustainability. - **Usage of Indigenous Plants:** Utilize local flora to create green roofs that support biodiversity and reduce maintenance requirements. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Green Architecture:** Develop eco-friendly architectural solutions that prioritize sustainable materials and energy-efficient designs. - **Renewable Energy:** Invest in solar power technology and infrastructure to support a green energy revolution in the housing industry. - **Landscaping and Horticulture:** Provide landscaping services specializing in the cultivation of indigenous plant species for green roof installations. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Plant-Covered Concrete Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/villa-kd45.md) - [Green Roof Residences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shibanee-kamal.md) - [Leaf-Inspired Countryside Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/leaf-house-1.md) - [Planted Roof Extension Projects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hope-villa.md) - [Eco-Focused Family Housing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rewild-homes.md) - [Sustainable Dynamic Hilltop Buildings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ro54.md) - [Hillside Embedded Residences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/house-in-the-slope.md) - [Tranquil Argentinian Forest Retreats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/forest-house-1.md) - [Sustainable Country Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/three-oaks-farm.md)
