Eco-Friendly Underground Mansions

This Luxe Underground Dwelling Minimizes the Use of Green Space

— October 5, 2015 — Eco
This proposed underground dwelling has everything you could want and more for those looking for a home that is as luxurious as it is unconventional.

The contemporary designed 'Perdu' home was conceived by English architectural firms NC Homes and Huntsmere and sits below a green garden space. Under its earth shelter sits a three-bedroom home complete with a full kitchen, living room, workout space and swimming pool with its very own waterslide. Natural light is also filtered into the underground dwelling through a dome-shaped skylight at ground level.

The 'Perdu' home is also designed to be eco-friendly and limit the amount of natural green space that would be consumed from a conventional above-ground home. The below-ground design also means the inside temperature remains constant, and additional features also include rainwater harvesting and a solar-powered water heater.
Trend Themes
1. Eco-friendly Underground Living - Exploring innovative ways to create luxurious homes underground while minimizing the use of green space.
2. Earth Sheltered Architecture - Developing underground structures that provide natural light, constant temperature, and eco-friendly features.
3. Luxury Sustainability - Integrating upscale amenities and sustainable practices in residential designs for a luxurious yet environmentally friendly lifestyle.
Industry Implications
1. Architecture - Architectural firms can explore designing and constructing underground homes with eco-friendly features and luxurious amenities.
2. Real Estate - Real estate developers can market and sell earth sheltered homes as a unique and sustainable housing option for luxury living.
3. Green Technology - Developing innovative technologies for rainwater harvesting, solar-powered water heaters, and other eco-friendly systems for underground living.
