Danielle Lehmann: Looking Out Week 1

This is the Pallet Hous. This house is 60 square meters and was able to recycle 800 pallets that would have been dumped in landfills. This building was actually built by two students and won many awards since its development in 2008. The building has a very low energy demand and actually collects rainwater from the roof to recycle. It is on its way to being produced in developing countries because of those reasons and because shipping pallets are so common and inexpensive. (In US dollars its about $108,000.)
