Our first low cost LivingHome!
We're debuting a really important new LivingHome at Modernism Week in Palm Springs and at TED in Long Beach and we're inviting our friends & family to a special preview in Long Beach, on Saturday, 2/18, from 11-1 pm, before we open it to the public.
Designed in collaboration with Make It Right, built in two months and installed in one day, this is our first affordable LivingHome. And it's the first Zero Energy, Zero Carbon production home ever to feature a LEED® Platinum level environmental program and Cradle-to-Cradle® inspired materials. It also includes a really cool new product we co-developed with Bill McDonough.
We can't wait to show it all to you!
Nature Made. Factory Built.

William McDonough is the founding principal of William McDonough + Partners, an internationally recognized design firm. He is also principal of MBDC, a product and systems development firm and is a Venture Partner at VantagePoint Venture Partners. Time magazine recognized him in 1999 as a 'Hero for the Planet' and as one of the "Heroes of the Environment" in October 2007. In 1996, Mr. McDonough received the Presidential Award for Sustainable Development, the nation's highest environmental honor; and in 2003 earned the U.S. EPA Presidential Green Chemistry Challenge Award. In 2004 he received the National Design Award for exemplary achievement in the field of environmental design. In October 2007, Mr. McDonough was elected an International Fellow of the Royal Institute of British Architects. Mr. McDonough and Michael Braungart co-authored Cradle to Cradle: Remaking the Way We Make Things, published in 2002 by North Point Press.
Make It Right is a non-profit organization founded by Brad Pitt and Bill McDonough to build 150 affordable, green, high design homes in New Orleans' Lower 9th Ward, a neighborhood devastated by Hurricane Katrina. They have completed 75 homes, all of which have been or have applied to be certified LEED Platinum by the U. S. Green Building Council. LivingHomes' architects Ray Kappe and KieranTimberlake have completed designs for Make It Right.
LivingHomes is a premier developer of modern, prefabricated homes that combine world-class architecture with an unparalleled commitment to healthy and sustainable construction. The first LivingHome, designed by Ray Kappe, FAIA, was installed in eight hours. It became the first home ever to receive a LEED for Home Platinum rating. Nine LivingHomes have been certified LEED Platinum. LivingHomes offers single and multi-family designs by Ray Kappe, FAIA, and by KieranTimberlake, the AIA 2008 Firm of the Year. LivingHomes are available in standard or customized configurations to builders, developers and individuals.
