"When we decided to build a new house we agreed that we wanted a home that was consistent with our decision to reduce our footprint on the planet. Trey was the obvious choice for a builder. He was the recognized local authority on sustainable building and had a reputation for quality work. Trey guided us through the many decisions one must make when building a home - at every stage, from beginning to end - and offered valuable insight and suggestions at the appropriate times. He and his crew take pride in the work they do and that shows in the quality of the product they delivered. We can think of no one who could have better helped us plan for a home that suits us, and then turn those plans into a high-quality home that we are proud of."

-Paul and Julie Cornia

Powell Home

The Powell home was finished in 2007. This home also combines a timber frame structure with exterior straw bale walls. The entire timber structure rests on top of an insulated and heated concrete slab that is encompassed by an insulated poured concrete stem wall. The straw bale walls, which provide superior insulation, are earthen and lime plastered inside and out. Conventional framing with dimensional lumber make up the interior walls. Many custom design details fill out the cozy, open, and airy interior space. Passive solar design, superior insulation, radiant heat, and grey water recycling, are paramount to this timber frame home.
