  • Green Guide to Prefab: Building a new home with limited time
    Inhabitat's Green Guide to Prefab series has explored all the elements involved in planning and realizing a modern prefab home - we’ve taken a look at the history of the various “branches” of the American prefab industry and how they have evolved, and we’ve discussed how to maximize building site, local climate, lifestyle goalsand budget into a design can make a break or a dream home. In our final article in the Green Guide to Prefab editorial series, we will discuss something thatinnovative systems builders have recognized and have begun to address in far greater measure than providers of more traditional home building services: time. With our busy lives how can we make the most of what limited time we have to effectively to plan for and build a home that meets our needs?...<br><br><a href='https://inhabitat.com/green-guide-to-prefab-how-to-make-the-most-of-your-time-when-building-a-new-home/'>READ ARTICLE</a>
