A full academic year was required to complete the first phase of this innovative realistic small scale house design to introduce sustainable development concept in an electronic engineer school. A few ten young pupils from 12 to 14 years old and their secondary school professors, 5 students and researchers from ENSEIRB-MATMECA engineer school, members of University of Craiova Romania, were involved in this project with the help of the national French agency ADEME (Agence de l'Environnement et de la Maitrise de l'Energie), and MNE of Bordeaux (Maison de la Nature et de l'environnement). While the small scale genuine materials house was realised by the secondary school's pupils, electronic and energy management system are designed at ENSEIRB-MATMECA andCraiova University, This 1/20 house model in now operational for practical lessons (renewable energy study, energy saving, infrared thermography measurement...) and for supporting electronic projects at ENSEIRB-MATMECA.
