Pretty much opposite of mine! Mine would be all open and light and airy.

Wouldnt yours smell, having very few windows? lol

HA!

well you'd think, but the two design features I forgot to mention are liberal use of light sources and ventilation. I'd be using light tubes to bring in light from the outside and through magnification, amplify them so the darkest corners would be just as bright.

As for air, that would also use a recirculated air system, feeding cold air in from the bottom and as it warm up, letting it escape from the top, whilst keeping the warmth in.

I'm such a nerd.

It'll have those too... It won't be *entirely* underground! :)

Mine would be a cross of that (I'd love a hobbit house) and being really light and airy. I also want the off the grid living with a huge greenhouse attached from a lounge room.

Of course, use as many natural or recycled materials as possible.
