Bioclimatic construction is just one element of our commitment. We pledge to reduce by the maximum our impact on the environment as well as to create direct benefits for Nature (in particular by protecting biodiversity).
Our paradigm is founded on a basic reflection: the most ecological resource is one which is not used. The bioclimatic construction gives thermal and acoustic comfort. All of the household electrical appliances and lighting are of low energy consumption. Production of hot water is adapted to the occupancy of the house and water flows are regulated.
We measure our monthly consumptions and analyse them carefully. Our actions are motivated and regularly reevaluated.
