OUTONOMIA is an award-winning, self-sufficient, DIY-built, fully solar-powered off grid home — a real template for anyone pursuing modern, year-round abundant off grid living without relying on a backup generator. Anywhere in the world.
Whether you’re starting from scratch or upgrading an existing off grid setup—be it a family house, homestead, cabin, survival shelter, glamping site, or tiny house—OUTONOMIA can serve as a valuable source of hard-earned insights and practical, field-tested, modern off-grid solutions.
OUTONOMIA — cozy, secluded, comfortable: a beautiful place of freedom.
There are no shortcuts when it comes to off-grid living. We had to do a lot of homework before building OUTONOMIA. Here are the most frequently asked questions we receive about our off-grid journey.

Designed as an exclusive add-on to the OUTONOMIA book.
We've gone even deeper. Alongside the book’s in-depth chapters, we’ve created an exclusive OUTONOMIA PDF Blueprint Package. This technical extension of the book includes the complete set of technical drawings, schematics, and construction plans we used to build OUTONOMIA itself.
The book gives you the full picture.
The blueprints add build-ready details.
Even if OUTONOMIA doesn’t match your visual or architectural style, we’re confident that the technical principles and systems we’ve developed can be adapted and scaled to suit your off-grid project.
Our book’s detailed contents were carefully assembled to be universally applicable by off-grid realists and dreamers across the U.S., Canada, the Americas, Australia, New Zealand, Europe, Africa, Asia, and beyond.
OUTONOMIA’s concept is suitable for any off grid location and project size.
We built OUTONOMIA in a secluded location with no connection to public utility networks, set in a temperate continental climate zone (exact location here).
Despite experiencing harsh, snowy winters and mild summers, the house generates 100% of its electricity from the sun. Our energy system was carefully designed to operate year-round without needing to use a back-up generator — all while maintaining virtually the same level of comfort as a modern-day on grid household.
This place was once just a dream — now it’s a real off grid home.
This is us — the family behind OUTONOMIA.
We’re deeply grateful to everyone
who helped bring our dream to life.
