El Prado, NM Earthship housing (# 1003)

Earthship houses built north of Taos. The goal of the Earthship houses is to be as much off-the-grid as possible through using natural and recycled materials in construction, through design and placement that harnesses the value of the available environment, through using solar and wind energy for electricity and heating/cooling, and by being self-contained in terms of water and sewage.
