Perdu undeground home
Perdu, a stunning underground house
Green enthusiasts who want to minimize their negative impact on environment generally prefer underground homes or low-impact houses. With housing crisis and shortage of land, many architects and designers are looking supporting the thought of underground homes, to promote a better living for conscious takers.
England-based NC Homes and Huntsmere have both proposed an underground home that will present the best of both worlds – above and under the soil.

Entitled Perdu, the underground house is provided with some environmentally friendly features like rainwater harvesting, heat exchange system and hot water heated with the help of solar tubes. The circular house, being an underground abode, offers stable environment and temperature, while minimizing the loss of green space.
Located on the grounds of 19th century Limehurst in Bowdon, the house proposed to be hidden underneath the landscaped lush-green English. Nevertheless, the home with a dome shaped passage in the centre allows natural light into the house.
The eco-friendly underground home like any other house is provided with kitchen, living area, three bedrooms, Jacuzzi and gym, but the best part is a slide leading straight to subterranean swimming pool.
