Project Overview
This project was developed for a private residential site located on a remote island in Palawan, Philippines, where access to public electricity and clean water is extremely limited. The client required a fully self-sufficient living solution suitable for long-term family use in a tropical environment.
A 70 m² (≈ 753 sq. ft.) light steel modular home was deployed, featuring a two-story layout designed for 3–5 occupants. The structure utilizes corrosion-resistant materials to ensure durability under high humidity and coastal conditions, while enabling fast installation on remote terrain.
Challenges
No access to public power grid;
High cost and limited availability of fresh water;
Harsh tropical climate with high humidity and salt exposure;
Difficult transportation and long traditional construction cycles.
Our Solution
We delivered a fully integrated off-grid solution combining modular housing with renewable energy and independent water systems. The design focused on rapid deployment, long-term durability, and complete self-sufficiency for remote island living.
Key Systems
1. Light Steel Modular House (70 m², 2-story layout).
2. 5 kW Solar Power System + 2 kW Vertical Wind Turbine.
3. 10 kWh Energy Storage System.
4. Rainwater Harvesting & Multi-Stage Filtration System (1 ton/day capacity).
