Remembering The Tango

In the world of sustainable architecture, I would like to look back a few years to 2003. Moore Ruble Yuddle, a architectural firm, created the Tango Housing Project. It is an exploration in mixing beautiful design, sustainability and high technology to bring a flagship home of the 21st century. Here is a quote from Popular Science's article where I first discovered this beautiful structure:
"They live in Tango, a green-and-wired 27-unit complex that decontaminates its own soil, recycles its water into a rebuilt marsh ecology, generates power from renewable sources, uses roof space to put oxygen back into the environment and, through sensors and broadband Web access, allows owners to re-motely monitor and control everything from energy use to electronic key access."
