Cohousing communities are a housing type which cluster private, self-sufficient dwellings around a "common house" with shared facilities. Cohousing fosters community relationships with neighbors while maintaining personal independence. Residents participate in the design of their community and play an active role in the group decision-making process (see www.cohousingco.com for more information). Bigelow Homes, having been recognized as the Nation's Leading Energy Efficient Builder, builds homes that pay attention these important concerns: total home comfort, preservation of the natural environment, broader green building practices, natural resource land development practices, environmental sustainability, and cultural and social sustainability process (for more information, see www.bigelowhomes.com). _______________________________________________ Cohousing-L mailing list Cohousing-L [at] cohousing.org Unsubscribe and other info: http://www.communityforum.net/mailman/listinfo/cohousing-l
