Called CODICILE, this award-winning model is a small, three-storey house designed to be built at the back of an urban lot overlooking an alley, as found in many downtown areas in Canada. The 78.97 m2 (850 ft2) house is a cube of about 6m (19.5 ft), with two bedrooms and a greenhouse on the roof. It is completely self-contained and does not use any municipal services or equipment for sewage, storm water or garbage collection.
