  I chose this project because it is in Mosgiel , where I live now. The design is made to be friendly to the environment, using natural systems for energy and water. Even though it is built on a slope, it looks like a comfortable place to live. I only worry about heavy rain and whether it could handle a landslide. The building is also like a welfare facility that people of all ages—from children to adults—can use. I really like how simple the design is, and I want to live close to nature in the future.
