Fosterella

Casa Fosterella combines the latest alternative energy and green material technologies with ultra-efficient space utilization. It fulfills the dream of living immersed in a natural environment unencumbered by solid walls in a unit that is 100% off the grid and can be modularly erected anywhere. This factory-built home offers the affordable convenience of modular construction with the inspiration of finely crafted, organic modernist design.

Casa Fosterella is named for a species of bromeliad, a plant family known for its beauty, diversity and adaptability. The leaf structure of a bromeliad plant captures rainwater for sustenance, all-the-while providing habitat for over 10,000 different animal species.

Drawing inspiration from the iconic glass houses of architects Ludwig Mies van Der Rohe and Phillip Johnson designed in the 1950’s, Casa Fosterella is wrapped entirely with floor to ceiling insulated glass panels. A tightly organized central core concentrates the utilitarian functions to maximize openness without sacrificing livability.
