Other energy-saving appliances, i.e. a washing machine that washes clothes for half the water, and a refrigerator that "learns" its users' habits, make this house a beacon of sustainable living. Moreover, the built-in sensors follow human presence and when a person vacates a living area, all the appliances, such as lights and air conditioners, switch off automatically.
