Heliodom, Solar-powered house in Cosswiller, France.
The Heliodome features a sundial shape with large windows and angled walls designed to capture maximum sunlight throughout different seasons.
Eric Wasser, a cabinet maker, developed this residential project as an experimental approach to sustainable housing in the early 21st century.
The house represents a shift in French residential architecture by combining modern design with environmental considerations and renewable energy solutions.
During winter months, the calculated angles of the structure allow sunlight to enter and warm the interior spaces naturally.
The building incorporates specialized thermal mass techniques and passive solar heating systems to maintain consistent indoor temperatures year-round.
