Victoria Meyers architect is pleased to present on-going construction photos of hMa's Won Buddhist Retreat.  The project will have a Zero-Carbon Footprint, and is also titled:  Absolute Zero, for this reason.  

hMa designed the master plan for the religious compound campus, as well as five buildings.  The site is an abated Brownfield, and will feature a solar panel farm for the production of all electrical power, five geo-thermal wells, and a central bio-mass boiler. 

We will keep you posted as the project is completed!
