Damian Hirst builds 500 solar and wind powered homes in Devon

Devon will soon play home to a bunch of new green homes, 500 in all, to be built by artist Damien Hirst. To serve as a model for environmental housing across the United Kingdom, these homes will be green as ever and will include photovoltaic panels and concealed wind turbines in the roofs. To be designed to complement the existing buildings around, these homes could also pack pitched roofs, bay windows, smart gable ends and short terraces and will have lighter carbon footprints than most homes around the world. A great example that could inspire people around the globe, this initiative by Damien Hirst is worth a load of applaud.
