Sustainable homes are increasingly popular and increasingly beautiful. But the cost to build many of these designs is through the roof. Enter the PopUP House. Designed by Hally Thacher, the PopUP House features a recycled concrete foundation, modular SIP panel walls, and a “House Port” agricultural shed roof that creates an air barrier that keeps the house warm in winter and cool in summer. And, the PopUp House can be built for $100 per square foot, a fraction of other sustainable home designs.
Dwell Magazine was so captivated by the PopUP House that it is a “Houses We Love” Finalist. The San Francisco Chronicle also raved about Hally’s creation, read about it here.
There’s an open house on Saturday, June 26, 11:00 – 2:00 p.m. Hally will be on hand to give tours and answer questions. We’ve also arranged a “Green Tour of Petaluma,” featuring several local businesses that are contributing to a sustainable society.
