About this Blog

The concept is to use a real life project to demonstrate and showcase how the six major areas of true sustainable buildings are implemented into a home for a real family. The six areas are:

1. Lot design, preparation and development
2. Resource Efficiency
3. Energy Efficiency
4. Water Efficiency
5. Indoor Environmental Quality
6. Operations, maintenance and building owner education

The opportunity to come and see and feel what a true sustainable home is all about is a unique experience.

During construction, both industry and consumers, will be able to see green building practices put into motion.
