Why they chose this property

As an earth-sheltered home, E.S.L.A. takes advantage of the constant temperatures of the soil to help regulate indoor temperatures. Thoughtful design and orientation of the E.S.L.A. structure/windows/skylights allows for the home to maximize solar gain in the Winter and minimize solar gain in the summer, creating a passive way to manage temperatures without use of energy inputs.
