Das Waldsee BioHaus at the German Language Village is a cutting-edge environmental learning center. In tune the Language Villages' immersion learning philosophy, this project is based upon the German Passivhaus standards for efficient energy use. The building's design facilitates language learning alongside environmental living.
The concept for the BioHaus is a compact, well functioning and beautiful structure designed by Intep, the Minneapolis-based architectural and consulting company specializing in sustainable construction. Features of this design include an extensive green roof, low impact and healthy building materials and simple building technology. The use of alternative energy resources, low energy use appliances and equipment are revealed through transparent siding for villagers to see sustainability in action.
Project Funding
Das BioHaus is partially funded by the Deutsche Bundesstiftung Umwelt (DBU), and a planning grant from the Kresge Foundation in Detroit, Mich. We invite you join these foundations with your support of this unique educational project.
