I thought energy efficient homes and buildings were just for the rich. Can anyone build a sustainable home or building?
• YES. Anyone who can afford to build anything can build a sustainable, green home or structure. • If you wait until all of your architectural plans are designed; or if you are trying to retrofit your existing home, the solutions can indeed become prohibitively expensive, although there are many smaller changes one can make to improve energy savings. • However, if you start with the design, as we do with our SED homes, you will have the home or building you want for the budget you started with. • Our solutions work with any size or design. Some designs increase the amount of savings and efficiency, but even the fanciest home can be built using our techniques, while maintaining elegance and increasing quality. • We build for communities, from cottage structures, to a standard 2 to 3-bedroom home, from 1300 square feet to 1700 square feet, and up. • We build from standard designs, so that anyone can own an SED home : first time homeowners; moving up to an additional bedroom for the next
