ARITCO 100-YEAR HOME REPORT
How are innovators helping to build homes suitable for the next century? This is the central question for ‘The 100-Year Home’ – our latest report created on behalf of sustainable elevator company Aritco. In this latest publication, we look at how people and organisations are creating solutions to maintain existing homes and build long-lasting new ones against the backdrop of climate change and financial uncertainty.
In three sections, the report breaks down what solutions are available when it comes to energy generation, cutting energy costs, and building secure homes in the face of climate shifts. With cutting-edge solutions such as invisible solar roof tiles, insulation made from popcorn, and smart ventilation systems, we highlight the innovations available today that could make for a better tomorrow.
