Duncan Baker-brown, who acted as the project initiator and one of its developers explained that the main purpose of the construction was the desire to practice to show that the house can be built almost from scratch and with minimal investment. In addition, the building has received all necessary approvals from regulatory and certification bodies.

As a building material made of used bricks and 85% trash. Cavity walls filled with thousands of 20 disposable toothbrushes, thrown out by passengers of Gatwick Airport. The creation of the walls and the trim went 4000 boxes of DVDs and 4000 VHS boxes was found in 2000 and floppy disks. In addition, we used two tons of denim scraps (they were full of empty boxes), 200 rolls of Wallpaper and 2,000 pieces of old carpet tiles.
