Prefab Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) - Passive Solar Architecture- Rainwater Collection - Solar Energy - Trombe Wall

The award winning greater Seattle architects (specializing in custom residential design, recreational facilities, green buildings and more) Gelotte Hommas Architecture joined with Green Cottage Kits to bring you beautiful traditional cottage architecture taken to tomorrow.

• 2,000 sq ft of beautiful, happy cottage design yet with the latest green building, energy efficient technology
• Check out all the details!
• Check out the trombe wall!
• Look at the window seats! Curl up with your books!
• The architect made a happy home that looks like it was built 200 years ago, yet for the next 200 years- Can you believe the solar panels on the roof look traditional?
• Look at the living space! The flow! Yet with a modest footprint.
• I picture myself on that porch, sitting on the bench…

We will have 3 configurations of this house kit:

• The 2,000 square ft. version you see here
• A smaller version (lose the second floor): 2 bedrooms, 1,400-1,600 sq. ft.
• A studio (lose the first floor right wing, and add a loft space over the left area): 600-800 sq. ft.
• We will also have a garage for purchase.

Like the kits on Green Modern Kits, our Green Cottage Kits homes will be made with Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) which are stronger than traditional stick built- you can learn more here: www.sips.org.  Upon each order, panels take about three weeks to fabricate, then ship.

Regarding R values, the R value for the 8 3/8” roof panels has an R-value of 29.3 when tested at 75 degrees F and a 31.6 when tested at 40 degrees F.  The 6 5/8” wall panels have an R-value of 22.6 when tested at 75 degrees F and a 24.3 when tested at 40 degrees F.
