DESCRIPTION: A Tour of a cohousing community, several solar homes and a winery, designed by the San Luis Solar Group. In these buildings the San Luis Solar Group has been able to eliminate virtually all of the energy consumption for space heating and cooling, by careful design and by evaluating the energy consumption of specific design features before the building is built.
