Pump House - exterior

Built by one of the architect's client who used to be a carpenter, this structure is completely self-sufficient with its own solar power, rainwater tanks and a wood-burning stove to meet all the energy and fuel needs.

Also, this semi-permanent, portable and compact structure uses affordable materials such as plywood, corrugated sheeting and rough-sawn timber in order to keep construction budget low, reminding us that homes do not have to be extravagant and sometimes simplicity is the best solution.
