“Besides being a super efficient and healthy home, a green home can be aesthetically pleasing beyond your imagination,” states Laura. “Your home can also be affordable. With the rising costs of fuel, a green home makes sense.” Working in tandem with SouthFace Institute, DR Construction, DES-SYN, Ed Castro Landscaping, and Harrison Design Architects, plans were drawn and ground broken for EcoManor. “Ultimately, our goal is a livable world for future generations,” added Rutherford. “EcoManor is an example of how green living can be possible.”
Laura and Rutherford Seydel hope that by building EcoManor, the home can be used as a tool to illustrate the opportunities and benefits of earth-friendly, energy-efficient homes. The home will serve as a showcase to demonstrate life in a green, eco-friendly way through the use of eco-friendly products, energy efficient products, and environmental options. More importantly, EcoManor will serve as an educational tool to builders, architects, designers, vendors, landscapers, educators and homeowners in an effort to promote green living, conservation options and improved residential building practices.
