Factory Built Green Homes Coming Of Age

At the recent modernism week event in Palm Springs the public was treat to the opportunity to see the first Factory built affordable Green home.

Living home is offering this prototype model of what they can build for about 185K exclusive of the cost of the land. I personally took the tour and was impressed with the fit and finish of the model. It felt very solid - and while not huge - felt open and airy.

These homes are not only Leed certified but can be totally finished on your lot in as little as 8 hours.

As the worlds resources tighten and become more expensive it is easy to see how sustainable building models like this will make big inroads into the marketplace.
