Disconnected and totally autonomous… this is the challenge of some constructions. Using local, bio-sourced or sometimes high-performance materials; Integrating ancestral techniques or innovative tools, these buildings can be considered in all forms for those determined to embrace a new, more ecological way of life. In Alsace, in eastern France, Eric Wasser cabinetmaker and owner of the title Meilleur Ouvrier de France traded his wood chisel for the carpenter’s hammer. After several years of research, geometric drawings and calculations, he built the Heliodome, a carved diamond placed in nature and a unique ecological house.

A desert country of pristine nature, the kingdom also enjoys a particularly rich history and culture.
