WINDFARM HOUSE: Living with the wind

Windfarm House reimagines the domestic envelope as a productive energy-generating system. Integrating micro wind turbine technology into the very form of the building, the project explores how branching structural geometries—optimized through topological design—can both support a home and act as a distributed wind farm.

The structure is composed of steel tubular members, designed to channel wind through a network of embedded turbines. These steel tubes not only provide structural integrity but also house the electronic wiring necessary to operate and distribute the harvested energy. As a result, Windfarm House functions as an autonomous unit capable of meeting its own energy needs while feeding surplus power back into the surrounding precinct.

More than a home, Windfarm House is a proposal for an energy-literate architecture—one that transforms infrastructure into inhabitable space and redefines the relationship between built form and environmental performance. It offers a model for decentralized energy production embedded directly into the urban fabric, responding to both ecological imperatives and architectural ambition.
