No Footprint Wood House Residential Architecture

No Footprint Wood House

The No Footprint Wood House is located along the southern Pacific coast of Costa Rica. Its bioclimatic design integrates with the surrounding lush tropical forests and natural habitat. The project forms part of the multi-award winning No Footprint House series. Climate-responsive building variations are based on passive design strategies. Industrial building techniques and prefabricated components are combined with locally harvested and regenerative construction materials. The project promotes integral sustainability in terms of its social, economic, environmental and spatial performance.

No Footprint Wood House Residential Architecture by Oliver Schütte was selected as an exceptional illustration of industrial design by the A' Design Award. No Footprint Wood House Residential Architecture won the Platinum A' Design Award in Sustainable Products, Projects and Green Design in 2025. The A' Sustainable Products, Projects and Green Design Award is an international, jury-voted, fair and ethical design accolade which recognizes superior design of sustainable projects, environment friendly designs, recycled, upcycled, bio-degradable products, Energy-Efficient appliances and more.
