"For a house in a walkable master-planned community in Florida's Panhandle, the architect used several techniques to maximize the structures' energy efficiency, ultimately attaining energy use that is 71 percent below code. Green features like the shaded arcade, central courtyard, geothermal heating and cooling, insulated concrete walls and even a shaded outdoor kitchen combine to give the home a languid comfort that enhances enjoyment of the setting. Jurors dubbed it 'great design.' " – http://aiachicago.org/special_features/2007DEA/awards.asp?subID=708
