Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Re: Alternatives for creating inexpensive homes

[Tom Hammer (thammer302]

The Shelter Institute that I wrote about recently has
nothing to do with "hippie home building" and
construction during the 70s that was done by a lot of
folks doing very non-traditional construction, often
by people with little training.  

The homes that can be produced using Shelter Institute
kits or as a result of their courses are of extremely
high quality and would pass local building codes. 
They have extensive experience on quality "green"
design and high quality insulation materials as well.
Their courses teach the theory of home design and
engineering as well as nitty gritty of construction. 
I hope no one was led astray by some of the notes that
followed my post.
