Kudos to the architect for actually talking about a design flaw (his thoughts on the amount of glazing throughout the home) as opposed to only highlighting all of the cool stuff. Lovely home!

Yeah, there is a reason why a lot of modern homes in America, Brazil and parts of Asia incorporate an outer sheathing of decorative slat work or open masonry blocks to shade the home and create art with those shadow effects on the walls. It really does help with the heat retention.
I can imagine this is the kind of dad who gets really excited about the functions of the house and like, during a hot day he keeps asking the kids how cool the house is and they begin getting annoyed, so he backs off... but then when theyve been asleep for a few hours, at like 2am, he wakes them up with great excitement and practically shouts at them "guess what temp. The house is right now guys!??!?!" And the kids start crying.
Beautiful Jerry - the way the wood weathers makes the units more unobtrusive. I imagine the wood has integral oils to do this & also like the way all the energy saving devices are integrated and hidden - for once also the way you have integrated the photovoltaics is also like a swiss watch - like it, well done.
In the winter I plug in my electric floors into my solar PV system for heating. In the summer I unplug them and use cross ventilation all night for day time cooling. With high insulation in attic, walls and floor your house will surprise you passively. Beauty house in the country!
Exactly… what aspects of sustainability they considered? Nothing mentioned about material used… quite disappointing. Even the house was not shown properly so inside.
An easy fix would be a protruding overhang to reduce overheating. I know it would go against the agricultural aesthetic but traditional homes in hot climates sport a veranda specifically to reduce high internal temperatures.
Robyn Caddell Aussies may do it but it’s not broadly an Aussie thing? I follow quite a few Aussie channels and precisely none of them do it with this pervasiveness? I also see a fair amount of Aussie tv & movies and it’s there but still wouldn’t say it’s moreso than other countries? I have been to Sydney a fair bit and definitely hear it but this guy is the end of every single sentence where a full stop would be?
I'm guessing you might live somewhere cold and grey! Sky lights can work like laser beams in some parts of Oz, and white walls burn your eyeballs. Like he was saying, he should have more shade. Different climates, different needs!

I would have liked to see more technicalities pertaining to the sustainability of this home
That cat by the sofa is having the time of its life .
The good kitty was definitely a highlight of the shoot for me!

me...
Me, Kevin Singapore
I have been dreaming of this for a very long time..
What's one piece of "normalcy" you'd like in your own off-grid home?
I'm saving up to go off grid
What a seriously chill guy.
Jerry was great to work with.

Would love to have a place like that. Great to keep it utilitarian.
What a gorgeous off-grid design. Just beautiful. Well done!
Beautiful home. Large trees would sure help shade and beautify the landscape.
He has solar panels though... So tall, high trees would impede solar panels from getting enough light.
beautiful and honest

This building is a jewel.
In the winter I plug in my electric floors into my solar PV system for heating. In the summer I unplug them and use cross ventilation all night for day time cooling. With high insulation in attic, walls and floor your house will surprise you passively. Beauty house in the country!
I would have liked to seen the solar electrical system, batteries and such.
That’s what I dislike about this channels
Filming. You don’t see the house, just the people behind it talking and some snapshots
Exactly… what aspects of sustainability they considered? Nothing mentioned about material used… quite disappointing. Even the house was not shown properly so inside.
What an extremely flawless terrace you have built. Did you consider to have more terraces to be more sun-protected?
Simply nice films 🎥

or double glazing would do.
Beautiful home
I was just looking at the cat, how cute,she/he just inviting to be petted
Thnx again☺️🙊
I always love it when a home has a good kitty cat!
THIS IS MY DREAM!
I like how it’s dark ..
Beautiful design 🤩
Would like to see more of the actual house
Sorry, it was one of my early videos. Maybe there could be a revisit episode?
Domo plus Channel great episode😀
Beautiful design
Oh that’s my dream ,,ranch life ,,,off grid ..,,animal foster home too /horses and dogs
sooooo cool!! beautiful plus off grid... love it
What was the energy rating of the home ?
Hi i wonder how you can power you house with so few solar panels en if i have a battery
in what way is this an off grid / sustainable home?
How is it not
Off grid sustainable home is not synonymous with earth ship type home.
Wolverine? That’s what I heard and therefore what I’m going to believe.
Where is this?
Class
"That was not unlike..." Yikes. When did double negatives become common so common?
How much was the construction?
Awesome material palette. Perhaps if you had more threes close to the house you wouldn't feel that way about glazing.
Think about the wildfire season, and a farm home clad in tinder dry wood. Trees are a no no.
To me the exterior does capture the agricultural feel, but I don't see that in the interior.
Bit dark innit?
Too bad you don't give a cohesive tour of any sort in this video.
That’s you projecting your expectations onto my channel.
the chair he's in tho...
I've been looking for one for years now.
Butterfly Chair, Argentinian design, now attributed solely to Jorge Hardoy. It's nice to look at, annoying to sit in.
My architect designed chair looks great but it is actually the most uncomfortable chair I’ve ever sat in 😀
Awesome video, but just curious, what does he mean by domestic materials? wouldn't local materials be more sustainable? Or am I just losing it lol
In this context, Jerry referred to “domestic material” as materials commonly used on residential homes, not locality speaking.
@@SimpleDwelling ohh okay! Thanks heaps :)
Perhaps geothermal to heat and cool?

La casa de mis sueños
Paint it white maybe? Thanks
This sounds like minecraft music
Can't get past the constant up-talk at the end of every phrase? Is this an Aussie architect thing? Hear it on so many videos with Aussie architects?
Yeah, i immediately chose uptick the playback speed to 1.5x😄
It’s just an Aussie thing
Robyn Caddell Aussies may do it but it’s not broadly an Aussie thing? I follow quite a few Aussie channels and precisely none of them do it with this pervasiveness?

Some of it harkens back to Irish roots.
Same thing as "like" in California :)
I still prefer the outside light yellow wood look of asian style
😍💪🏼👊🏼
I like the farm aesthetic. But it appears too dark and depressing inside. Desperately in need of some skylights.

"sustainable" as word means little any more.
I'm not sure you understand the true meaning of the word
piano drives me nuts
Looking alone??
He looks like tony stark who's tired of being iron man and just resorted to building homes 🤣 that also explains why he can afford such a place 🤣
way too dark
Depressing interiors, drab color palate and the details make it look like a unfinished garage inside. Not enough windows for me.
Modern brah.
@@thedownunderverse That may be bra, but still depressing.
this music makes me want to puke. maybe no music next time plsss
If only i was a millionaire. Then I’d be able to spend someone’s life savings on a home like this and save a few dollars on my bills 🤩😐🖕
Wolveridge, ? LA ? Did deeper,
he could have at least run a comb through his hair
Why?
