Kudo’s and and a tip of the hat to Gigaplex Architects for their design for a unique, green home in Woodland, UT.  The home is comprised of two corrugated metal grain silo’s, providing luxury and good looks for a fraction of the cost of traditional constuction.

The home features 1800 square feet of living space with a sexy, circular interior.  The home was sited with a southern exposure to provide natural lighting and solar gains in winter.

The floors are covered with rubber tiles, finished with a shiny finish.  Simply, damp mop and go.  Rubber tile also allows solar gain into the slab, which assists the radiant heat floor mats in warming the room.

Cool bedroom for the kids or guests.

Kitchen and circular stair case.
