My name is George Mihaly,
I am 54 years old , father of 3 small children
When the time was right,
I decided to build a home with very low running costs...
In the movie business where I work not everyone has a long life expectancy
If anything happened to me,
I wanted to make sure that my family would not lose their home...
...Just because they cannot pay the bills
When I was trying to find out how to cut - or eliminate - heating costs
Or use less running water
I only had my purse in mind
But it turned out to be also beneficial for the environment
We use less energy, we save drinking water for the Earth
I went on searching and found many more great technical solutions
This house-building project became fun, a real pleasure for me!
Therefore everything in this house is at least a little unusual
heating, thermal and moist insulation, structural and separating walls
Roofing, flooring, but also the painting and bathroom fixtures
As a man off the street I used to think that construction industry boils down to
brick, mortar, dirt, time delays
But having gone through the excercise I changed my mind:
This is an industry full of wisdom and enormous knowledge
That has an answer to almost all of our questions
This is what this film is all about
