I need a NowHouse
When I purchased my Hitachi 65S500 TV back in April, I made a deal with my wife that we could begin looking into buying or building a new house the following April. I figured she would forget about it by next April, so I agreed. Well...she hasn't, so far. In fact, she wants to start thinking about it now. I, on the other hand, am content to stay in our current house because I have put a lot of work into it (and still have a fair amount of work left before we sell it).
Today, however, I came across NowHouse.org. NowHouse is project based on Clever Homes' prefabricated, green-friendly construction methods. After taking a look at their designs and their building process, I am thinking that building a new house isn't such a bad idea.
I like the designs of Clever Homes because they feature modern exteriors, open interiors with a lot of natural light and can be built quickly with very little negative impact on the environment. They claim that their homes are comparable in price to traditional construction; however, the fact that they don't have any prices listed on their website kind of worries me.
Check the NowHouse project or Clever Homes for more info.
