THE C6 ALMOST AS GOOD AS A G6?

I love pre-fab, and Leed built homes. A great sit to check out pre-fab homes is www.livinghomes.net. My favorite is the C-6. It was designed as part of a partnership with Make It Right, the organization founded by Brad Pitt and architect William McDonough to build 150 Cradle to Cradle inspired LEED Platinum homes in New Orleans’ Lower Ninth Ward, the neighborhood hardest hit by Hurricane Katrina.You can build the C-6  for $179,000! And  can be fully constructed in less than two months and installed on-site in one day.

The 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom Living Home includes:

Cork floors, wood ceiling, and wood siding.
Multiple sliding glass doors accessing the backyard and courtyard.
Multiple finish options in the bath/kitchen.
Floor-to-ceiling glass, clerestory windows, light tubes, and transom windows.
Ample storage, particularly in the kitchen.
Full feature lighting control system, accessible from an iPhone.
