I would think they are pretty affordable. If you have any knowledge please share. Thanks I’d like to know if anyone has built one of these to live in year round as a home.

I'm in CT and I'd like to see designs built in this area. A project like this would be something I'd like to research for a possible future home. Thanks.

It contained a lot of the same eco systems, same Ford-blue detailing, & that sure looks like a roll up door in the middle there. Too bad it's not... The student's would love an open-air classroom on those nice days. OK, this is definitely better than the typical trailer classroom, but why why why does modular still translate as -- low ceiling, flat roof, trailer ?"...what prefab can and should stand for - efficiency, sustainability, and flexibility."----- afFORDability ---- ???

Very reminiscent of Rocio Romero's LV House with steel siding instead of galvume. I'm not wild about the blue trim, but it can apparently be painted any color. The website seems very extensive in most respects but I couldn't find any mention of price. Any idea? I hate to keep harping but it seem's like the biggesy impediment to widespread adoption. These guy's at least seem like they have a better grasp of manufacturing issues than most of the new eco pre-fab designers. Interesting.
