House of the Future

A bold sleek house that reaches towards the future, while being rooted to its heritage.

The home harnesses local environmental resources to power and cool itself efficiently. Solar panels capture the UAE’s abundant sunlight to generate clean electricity, storing excess energy in batteries or selling it back to the grid.

A hybrid cooling strategy combines passive design, a self-cooling facade, and smart window vents to optimize airflow and minimize heat gain. Meanwhile, a geothermal heat pump works with the HVAC system to maintain comfort, significantly reducing energy demand in extreme desert conditions.

Water and organic waste are recycled through graywater filters, composting, and biogas systems, turning waste into resources for irrigation, farming, and energy. This reduces demand on municipal networks and closes the loop for a sustainable household ecosystem.

All systems—energy, cooling, water, and waste—are connected through HomeOS, an AI-driven platform that monitors conditions and user behavior in real time. It automates adjustments, predicts maintenance, and gives residents full control from any device.
