Green Daily Sustainability Series: SHELTER, Part 4

In this video we chat with Tim Schmidt, CEO of Xtreme Homes, a green building company that specializes in prefabricated homes, as he gives us a tour of the mkLotus: a prefab home designed my architect Michelle Kaufmann that's made out of 100% environmentally-conscious materials.


Green Daily Shelter, Part 4 from Alexia Prichard on Vimeo.

Prefab home design has been gaining a lot of ground in the last few years because of it's efficiency, beauty, sustainability and affordability. For a list of materials used in the construction and interior design of the mkLotus, click HERE. For more information on architect William McDonough, chemist Michael Braungart and their "Cradle-to-Cradle" design aesthetic, click HERE. Their book is amazing and I highly recommend it! Lastly, for more information on what's happening in the green building sector, check out West Coast Green's website for a list of vendors and topics included in their annual conference.
