Power Supply
Reducing Energy & Water Consumption
• Waterless washing machines- Sanyo’s Aqua uses Ozone to break down bacteria and dirt
Waterless dishwashers- Rockpool uses liquefied CO2 to emulsify and remove greases
and waste food material
• Recycling of used/dirty water
• Water-efficient aerated tap/shower heads
• Energy-saving light bulbs (3W LED Spotlighting)
• Heat and motion sensors in tandem to turn off appliances when not in use

Oxygen, Water & Thermoregulation
Above: The thermoregulation system for keeping the building
warm. Water pumped from the tanks on
the upper floor and heated by electric immersion heaters, created convection currents within rooms.
Double-skinned spiral staircase column used to move warm air
between floors
Below: System for maintaining breathability of atmosphere
(extracting CO2 and providing O2) and also for obtaining energy
from hydro-electrolysis
Utilities, Panic Room & Food From Plants
• Small sealed room in one corner of the building allocated solely for use in
emergencies• Emergency supplies of food, water, oxygen tanks and plants to stabilise atmosphere and potentially provide
food• Independent batteries that can provide
energy (mainly to power the distress beacon) as a back-up for when the
power from the rest of building goes down
