Green Home Plans: Green building is a hot trend in house plans. Green building considers the environmental impact during the design, construction, maintenance and use of a building. These include site-specific positioning, use of sustainable and renewable materials, energy-efficient building techniques, water conservation, indoor environmental air quality and self-generation of energy.
If you are looking to build green, look for elements such as energy-efficient windows and doors and water-efficient toilets and fixtures, open spaces, modest ceiling heights and plenty of natural light sources. Check the blueprints for 2x6 exterior wall framing. (For a selection of homes that use 2x6 construction, tour homes in our Signature Series collection, which includes exclusive new designs.) Plus, make sure you look through our selection of Berm Home Plans and our collection of Solar Home Plans.
