The Michigan Solar House was the University of Michigan's entry in the 2005 Solar Decathlon which began in the summer of 2003 when it was one of the nineteen schools of architecture and engineering that were selected by the Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory to participate in the Solar Decathlon.

My role was to produce all of the flash components for the website, MYSQL and php programming, browser versions, javascript properties, and color collaboration with marketing theme.

Different flash applications were designed for the website with surround audio including home customization, timelines, and newsletters, but were later replaced by php based forms and pdf mailed newsletters, while some of the original flash components were incorporated in the competition site.
One of the php created forms was an application that would take your energy usage and generate an online report and the recommended number of modules you would need to build a MiSo* house for your lifestyle.

Collaborating with different teams of the project to incorporate simulations and video more efficiently in the website. Much of the information was not web ready, so many diagrams had to be re-created to work with the web interface.
