B&B in Italy Focuses on Sustainability

Sustainability is the basic principle underlying the concept of Luca Del Bo’s bed & breakfast hotel. Concealed behind the house is the photovoltaic system, which supplies the power for the heat pump for the heating and cooling of the house as well as for heating domestic water. Rain water is collected and used to water the garden, and sewage is treated in a reed bed that purifies waste water. The natural pool provided the finishing touch to round off the concept. The guests are delighted at not having to swim in a chemically treated pool.
