Net zero energy building: A branch library for Lubbock, TX

The true goal for sustainable architecture should be to achieve at least the level of zero-net resource consumption, so a sustainable architecture can extend beyond the building by creating not only a design that is self-sustaining, but also a positive, generative source of resources that can be returned to the community. This project is about achieving a goal of energy and water independence. This is already a goal of other organizations for the future, but it is already possible and should be a goal for our current time.
