Nice article. I liked the human aspects. The school, work, family and interesting building techniques. The references to suppliers is a added bonus.

I saw the article on the house on a tv show(Worlds Greenest Home) We are thinking of buying a small rancher and are inspired to do a similar project. Love the cladding. Can we access specs on it as well as insulation usage. Our climate (Tsawwassen, B.C.) is sunny but not as cold in the winter as Boulder.

We are builders in Ottawa. I really like the advanced building techniques. I wish these building materials were a little easier to find.
