In the metropolitan D.C. area, there are plenty of places to buy land and build an energy-saving, light-filled, modern pre-fabricated home. Pre-fabricated 'green' homes are homes you design and customize with the design firm. The firm's special team of installers comes to your prepared land and assembles the home onsite. In addition to applying passive solar energy technology, utilizing reclaimed or renewable woods and materials and integrating modern design concepts with structurally sound construction, pre-fabricated homes reduce the environmental footprint of new construction and are often much cheaper!

Check out some of the sites below to learn more about green pre-fabs. If you find a great site that's not on the list, please email me!
