Black House Residential

Black House

The Black House forms part of the modular No Footprint House series. The climate responsive designs of the project are based on passive strategies such as site specific positioning and the use of natural resources for cross ventilation, solar shading and energy production, as well as rainwater harvesting and biological water filtration. Industrial construction techniques create a high level of efficiency that can be delivered to any target location, combined with locally harvested and renewable materials to promote integral sustainability and regenerative development for the built environment.

Black House Residential by Oliver Schütte was identified as an exceptional illustration of industrial design by the A' Design Awards. Black House Residential won the Silver A' Design Award in Sustainable Products, Projects and Green Design in 2024. The A' Sustainable Products, Projects and Green Design Award is a highly prestigious international design award that recognizes superior design of sustainable projects, environment friendly designs, recycled, upcycled, bio-degradable products, Energy-Efficient appliances and more.
