The perFORM[D]ance house is almost ready to depart to Washington DC!!!
The past few days were spent finishing the house skirting, testing a prototype louver mechanism that allows it to operate, and finishing work on the interior pieces.
Testing the Louvre mechanism |
The image above shows the kitchen with the
lights turned on, which is part of our tests of the now finished
electrical system which essentially means the house is being tested for
how well all of it's working systems function.
ALMOST THERE SOLAR DECATHLON 2011!!
Congratulations to the FIU team!! Good Luck in DC.... Jim Piersol, MCHarry Architects.
