Local sustainable living solutions to modern problems like photovoltaic panels, rainwater collection system, or floating living roof will be part of this year’s collection. The attendees will learn about dwellings that the community is producing and garner ideas for their own home through dramatic indoor open spaces created by professional interior designers. Modern outdoor designs will include edge pools, custom water features and even a private outdoor shower.
