Heliotrope solar house
Close up of the top of the Heliotrop Solar House, Freiburg, Germany. Designed by architect Rolf Disch, the house was built in 1994 as an artists studio and home. With a circular plan, the solar powered building features balconies incorporating vacuum tube collectors to produce solar heated water, and an array of photovoltaic cells on top. The twin-axis solar sail pv array moves on its horizontal axis and swivels from east to west to track the sun as it moves across the sky

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Heliotrope solar house, located in Freiburg, Germany. Designed by architect Rolf Disch in 1994, this unique building was initially intended as an artist's studio and home. Its cylindrical shape and innovative features make it a true architectural marvel. The top of the Heliotrop Solar House is the focal point of this close-up shot. The circular roof incorporates an array of photovoltaic cells that harness sunlight to generate electricity. Additionally, balconies adorned with vacuum tube collectors provide solar heated water for various purposes within the house. What sets this structure apart is its twin-axis solar sail PV array. This remarkable feature allows the panels to move horizontally and swivel from east to west, tracking the sun's path across the sky throughout the day. By maximizing exposure to sunlight, maximum power generation is achieved while ensuring minimal energy consumption. Rolf Disch's vision for sustainable living shines through in every aspect of this self-sufficient dwelling. The Heliotrope solar house exemplifies green technology at its finest, utilizing renewable energy sources to reduce environmental impact. As we admire Martin Bond's stunning photograph, we are reminded of how advancements in solar architecture like these pave the way towards a more sustainable future - one where buildings can harmoniously coexist with nature while meeting our energy needs efficiently and responsibly.
