The Pasadena EcoHouse

SCIP - LEED Platinum Home in the USA

SCIP (Structural Concrete Insulated Panels) homes use eco-concrete skins as structural component, which is sprayed on a pre-fabricated styropore panel with a recycled wire-mesh truss system. This allows rapid construction, cost savings and high-energy efficiency. The Pasadena EcoHouse www.ThePasadenaEcoHouse.com is slated to use only 10% of the energy of an original wood framed house, which will be rigorously monitored by the USA LEED Certification system, to ensure accuracy during and after construction. At the same time, the owners are people like you and me, on tight budgets and this 2000 sq ft home aims to compete with similar wood framed houses. Studio RMA www.studioRMA.com, responsible for the design of this house is on the forefront of SCIP technology and with a lot of creative work is being able to create sustainable houses for the average person, which is a breakthrough for our times.
