关于此电子书

A guide to how prefabrication can assist those looking to build an energy-efficient home that won’t break the bank.

Prefabulous and Sustainable dispels the negative myths associated with prefab homes and shows the reader how beautiful and remarkably green these homes can be. In this unique, hands-on guide for homebuilders, author Sheri Koones showcases twenty-five examples of how factory-built homes can be greener, more efficient, sturdier, and even more cost-effective than site-built homes. This practical manual gives you all the tools needed to customize a sustainable, prefab home at an affordable price. Koones outlines the materials, strategies, and systems used to create a sustainable living environment. Stunning photography and user-friendly floor plans and resource guides prove that green living is not as complicated as one might think—and is attainable for everyone.

“[Prefabulous + Sustainable] will soon become required reading for anyone interested in quality housing for the twenty-first century.” —Bob Berkebile, Fellow of the American Institute of Architects
