The RoofPod is more than just a house, more than an energy source or a garden.
It is a piece of urban infrastructure, part of an integrated system to simultaneously address the challenges of electrical energy production, heating and cooling, stormwater retention, heat island effect, urban wildlife habitat, and carbon sequestration with biomass. The architectural design adopts a modular, yet customizable, approach to assembly, calculating that there will be sizable economies of scale when numerous RoofPods are fabricated and installed.
