Living systems
Sustainability isn't a feature. It's the operating system.
Six systems are envisioned to work together — at the scale of a single home and at the scale of a neighbourhood. Open any one of them for its philosophy, potential technologies and open research questions.
The six
Six systems, one way of living.
Start here for the shape of the whole picture — then use the study below to see where each system lands in the architecture.
Systems study
How the systems sit inside the architecture.
Select a system to see which modules it touches, and what it could mean at home and across a neighbourhood.
Systems
Energy — Generate. Store. Share. Highlighted modules are the ones this system touches.
At home — Energy
- Solar arrays sized to the module configuration
- Heat pump heating and cooling with zoned control
- Home battery buffering evening demand
- Simple dashboards showing generation against use
Across the neighbourhood
- Shared storage so surplus stays inside the neighbourhood
- Peer-to-peer energy sharing between homes
- Coordinated demand during peak periods
Technologies named across these systems are concepts under consideration. Hexoterra does not manufacture or operate them.

Know one of these systems better than we do?
Sustainability partners, manufacturers and researchers are exactly who this concept needs.
