produces no emissions and is self-sufficient in terms of heating<br />
energy consumption. The building is completely glazed<br />
with triple glazing panels and demonstrates excellent insulation<br />
performance.<br />

modules are attached by means of mortice-and-tenon joints<br />
and bolted joints. The building cannot only be easily dismantled,<br />
