Rural Australian Compound Gets Tied Together with Corrugated Metal Roof.

MRTN Architects designed a semirural house in Tamworth, Australia, to transform a parched piece of land into an energy-efficient contemporary home set within a landscape of regenerated native plants. The house features an almost totally enclosed courtyard garden in the center, two sheds connected by a roof, and a singular corrugated metal roof design that ties together all buildings and provides undercover walkways. The project has a solar panel array, north facing thermal mass, and captures water, allowing the house to cope with a severe climate that can be prone to drought and also gets cold in winter.

ExxonMobil's massive refinery expansion brings affordable energy to market.

ExxonMobil has completed America's largest oil refinery expansion in over a decade, adding 250,000 barrels per day to its oil output, increasing its total processing capacity to more than 630,000 barrels daily. The $2 billion project was completed on time and on budget, earning the facility two consecutive Gold Energy Star acknowledgments from the Environmental Protection Agency. The expansion works towards ExxonMobil's mission of creating sustainable solutions that improve quality of life and meet society's evolving needs.
