My name is house. Smart house. - Smart and passive house technologies

General description

Imagine there's a smart house
it's easy if you try
in the morning makes you coffee
in the evening makes you high
Imagine all the BESTies
living in it today...

Imagine many cultures
it isn't hard to do
coming to Ljubljana
and having fun with you
Imagine all this, people
how could you say no?

You may say that we're dreamers
but we're not the only ones.
We hope in March you'll join us
and that we will be as one!

You will learn about possibilities and advantages that smart house provides, which include reduced environmental impacts, increased security and cost efficiencies. You will also visit companies and test your creativity in engineering competition.

All that, spiced with parties and friendships you'll never forget ;-)

Academic information

Content and topics:

A smart house is a home that is highly automated. When you come home from a working day it opens the door and greets you by turning on the lights. In the kitchen your fridge informs you that you are missing a few ingredients from the recipe for tonight's dinner. It waters your plants and feeds your pets, while you're having holidays. Without you even knowing it, your dishwasher has detected an internal technical fault and has automatically requested maintenance assistance from its manufacturer. Some smart houses can even have ultra-low energy consumption; these homes are called passive houses.
