Modular - "Off-the-Grid" -Single Family Sub-Urban Dwelling. Maximize Habitable & Defensible Lot Area via the use of an integrated Perimeter Wall/Fence. Side Yards of Lot are trasformed into Zen Gardens which serve to integrate/enhance the inherent value of all Interior Habitable Spaces to that of the Exterior Garden Spaces - Integration = doubling of usable lot area. Note: this prototype is intended to be "Off-Grid" for power and water consumption. Ramon A. de Mier
