The Vista Residence has been featured by online sustainability blog Inhabitat in an article that highlights the home's green credentials:

"This sculptural home in Austin is a scene-stealer, for more reasons than just its good looks. For starters, the dwelling is powered with a 15.4-kiloWatt rooftop photovoltaic system that not only covers an estimated 90% of the home’s annual energy needs, but is expected to help save homeowners more than $94,000 in energy costs over the next 30 years. Miró Rivera Architects designed the abode with many energy-efficient features for long-term cost savings that include both low-tech and high-tech elements from deep overhangs to a variable refrigerant flow (VRF) mechanical system."
