Striking Off-Grid House on the Osa Penninsula in Costa Rica Read more: SPG Architects Design Off-Grid Luxury Residence in Costa Rica
Within the wilds of the Costa Rican rain forest on the Osa Peninsula sits Casa Torcida, a beautiful modern home designed by SPG Architects.
Although its footprint is large in terms of square footage, it is
surprisingly light on the environment and is able to run completely
off-grid thanks to a solar system on the roof and a micro-hydropower
system located nearby. The owner's criteria for the home required that
above all the home must be environmentally sensitive, technologically
advanced and modernist by design. From the looks of it, it appears that
the owners got what they wanted.
