Afterhouse

Using the constant temperature of the earth Afterhouse is a new urban typology that transforms the concrete foundation of a derelict house into passive solar subterranean greenhouses allowing crops to be extended and moderated in temperate climates. By using readily available materials and techniques while maintaining the scale of the neighborhood, Afterhouse empowers a community to transform a blighted home into productive spaces for growing and celebrating food during the winter.
