At 6:00am this morning we "broke ground" starting the construction process and physical existence of DALE! Thanks to DPR Construction for all your support!
We have completed and submitted our Construction Documents! Building is the next step on the agenda. Stay tuned!
DALE video describing the SCI-Arc/Caltech project
The Solar Decathlon Competition is a biennial competition sponsored by the U.S. Department of Solar Energy where 20 schools from around the world compete in designing and building a net zero prototype home. The SCI-Arc/Caltech team proposes D.A.L.E. (Dynamic Augmented Living Environment), a 600sf micro-home that literally moves on rails, expanding to create a mid-yard and multiplying the inhabitable space.
