Jon Larsen, a previous
client, wanted a new home which was a model of environmental
construction. He selected the smaller
version of the Vermont Healthy Home plans for his new home. We customized the plans to fit his site and
specific desires. The home faces the
view to the east and has solar collectors for space heating, domestic hot
water and electrical generation on the south-facing roof. On the exterior, environmental materials
used include siding from certified sustainably-managed forests, decking from
recycled plastic and wood, and "slate"
roofing that is made from recycled post consumer tires and post industrial
baby diapers.
