Sustainable House Project.

Background Knowlege:

The susstainable house is in a Semi - Arid Desert biome. It is in the Accona Desert (43.1956° N, 11.5730° E) The average tempetures for this area is 50-80 degreese. In the summer the Accona Desert can gets to almost 800 mm/y of rain in the summer. The area is rich in olive trees, fruit trees, almonds, vines, orchards, small cypress woods, oaks and junipers. Furthermore, Pius II added, there was water: a perennial spring, wells, tanks, cisterns.

About the project:

I used a empty cardboard bow for my house. I started by useing a box cutter to cut pieces off for the sides. I used a ruler to mesure out eatch pice and used a pencil to mark where I want to cut I ended up with 5 pices of cardboard and started glueing them together to make the frame.

Box cutter, Hot glue gun,carboard box,ruler,and pencil.

I glued the 5 pices I had together. I used the hot glue gun and put glue along the edges. The house was starting to come together but it looked flat and bland. I thought for a little while and decided to add steps to the door and a little overhang. To make the steps I cut angeld pices of cardboard and made creases in a flat pice. I was able to make the flat pice into a stair like pice. I glued the angled pices of cardboard on the sides and held it together so it would not seperate. Then I glued the stairs to the house. I made the overhang from cutting wooded skewers in half and glueing them to a pice of cardboard. Then I glued the skewers to the pice of cardboard under the house. Finaly I glued the overhang to the house. Then I spray panted it and I was done. (This is my first instructabels so it is not the best) if you read this thank you.
