Home Building Plans


I took college preparatory architecture classes thinking that architecture could be an intriguing profession. I quickly found that I did not have the artistic talent that was necessary for an architecture student of that time. My undergraduate studies at Southern Illinois University were focused on Environmental science and business. After moving to Colorado in the late 70’s, I again pursued studies in architecture and the construction sciences. A night program through Colorado Mountain College fit well with my daytime construction employment. The late 70’s and early 80’s were a vibrant time for solar designs and energy efficient building strategies, as the gas crisis hit America and our president made a commitment for energy independence. Over the next few years I attended every regional conference and workshop I could find that dealt with cutting edge passive solar design. It was the start of integrating passive solar concepts into my work. Of course the urgency of creating an America that was energy independent was short lived but a small group of designers and builders, of which I am one, has kept up the cause over these many years.
