The Green Scene...Marmol Radziner Prefab...

Could you live in a prefab home? one that uses environmentally-conscious materials and is energy efficient? Hopefully, there will be many more of these homes in the future and they won't be super expensive. Marmol Radziner designed this series, the 'Rincon' as just that...here are the stats: they use denim insulation, LED lighting and low-VOC paints. They will do upgrades including a "polished concrete floor, Heath Ceramics tile and a handcrafted walnut kitchen island." Below is the Rincon 5, 660 square feet, 1 bedroom, 1 bath and a kitchenette. Great for a starter or a retirement home. The base price is $179,000!

I love it for its simplicity, energy efficiency and modern design. I would love to live in this home...would you?
