Green, affordable, customized dwellings by BLU Homes

Nithya NJul 19 2008

You might have come across many ‘green homes’, but what makes BLU unique are the benefits they are willing to deliver, all stacked at affordable rates. Simple philosophy of healthy living is what they are willing to offer in their homes. The house includes Cradle to cradle (C2C) products, which means that each product is analyzed by the chemists at C2C, and has to pass health standards in order to be allowed into the program. There’s also plenty of natural ventilation, lots of sunlight, toxin-free building materials reducing allergens and other threats to indoor air quality, and products like chemical-free carpeting that children and adults can enjoy safely, are all part of the deal.

The video of Bill Haney, Co-Founder and President of the company will give people an idea of the philosophy behind BLU. Each home can be individually customized to the family's needs, so if one wants a porch to slide the bed out under the stars, you can probably have that done too.

Designs include a one bedroom, two bedrooms rural, two bedrooms urban, flexible space, and a studio design, a delight for the occupants featuring open floor plans that are smartly and passively designed. BLU further estimates 50-75% less carbon emissions than traditional construction. Ranging from $50k to $350k, the cost purely depends on the kind of designs and customizations for the home.
