As part of the projectBenefit Living EXPEDITIO published a brochure and poster entitled “Building contemporary, low energy and low-cost houses in in Montenegro”. These publications are intended for all those who want to live in healthy and energy-efficient homes. The publications will be distributed to the local governments in Montenegro (Departments of Urbanism and Spatial Planning), and through them, made available to prospective investors. A number of copies will be available to professionals and all those who are interested in this topic.

Within the project Benefit Living, on our page portalu you can find inspiration for construction of a modern, energy efficient, family house. These are examples of the houses built in the previous several years. The houses have simple and harmonized esthetics, and they have modest size. We could imagine some of these houses in Montenegro.

Within the project Benefit Living, in the period March 21-25, 2011 a workshop was held with partners from partner organizations Cornucopia (Slovenia) and Academica (Serbia).
