crunchtastic Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 http://www.slate.com/blogs/the_eye/2014/05/19/rural_studio_builds_brand_new_20_000_houses_in_alabama.html I like how they approach the economics of the community, contractors, workers etc in this project, not just the house plans. Pretty nifty designs which if scaled up, with slightly more luxurious finishing, would be good structures for the retirement co-op/compound I want to build.

Specwriter Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 There is a video on CD tiltled Citizen Architect; Samuel Mockbee and theSpirit of the Rural Studio. It is most likely available on Amazon among other sources. The video runs about an hour and it is well worth viewing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
