How can the best of traditional and modern design and technology be combined to create a carbon neutral home?

Follow me as I encounter the challenges and solutions that the house and its mountain forest environment present.
A key feature of an eco-house is a drum-tight envelope. This shot of the outside wall shows the care taken to seal all the insulation panels with foil tape.
