And how much does all that cost? It does no good if no one can afford it. “this home is packed to the gills with integrated green technologies and fed by huge rooftop solar electric and thermal arrays”

Great! And how much does all that cost?

It does no good if no one can afford it.

Brilliant. My question is about the energy efficiency of glass. If glass is far less insulative than a wall can be; why are there so many (way more than normal homes) windows? It seems like this house could be MUCH more energy efficient with less window and more insulation. Is this just for aesthetics or is there something I don't know. Beautiful design! Brilliant.
