From Steve Mouzon:
Check out today's Wall Street Journal... the Journal Report's cover story is The Green House of the Future. My SmartDwelling I design is one of the four houses featured. Here's the link, although if you can find an actual paper version of the Journal, the printed images in the story are far better than those on the web:
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124050414436548553.html
For better online images, go to http://www.mouzon.com. I'm also building the new New Urban Guild site; the servers are switching over now, and I'm hoping it's up in 24-48 hours; it'll have an entire SmartDwelling Project section. Just as soon as it's up, I'll link to it from www.mouzon.com. I'll be adding lots of SmartDwelling images and resources to the Guild site for several days. |

I noticed that in today's paper. Very cool! What's the 3D in, SketchUp? _________________ Rob

Steve's domain needs a password? Is the root maybe in the wrong directory? _________________ Rob

We were discussing that article at my office, and I didn't notice the name until now. We all agreed that Steve's was the best design by far.
One thing that came up is how to deal with the smell from the spam coop. I raise spam and have only found that cleaning the coop once a week eliminates the smell, as well as closed compost for the manure. |

I just noticed these posts when signing on a moment ago... not sure why I couldn't get on a couple weeks ago. In any case, thanks, everybody! The plans were done in PowerCADD, then ported to SketchUp thanks to the nifty little tool Alfred created for me in WildTools... it simply saves a file without all the stuff that trips up SketchUp... stuff that I didn't know because I was a SketchUp newbie... that was the first (and to date, only) SketchUp drawing I've ever done.
As for the spam, the manure bins just below the spam coop is a pair of closed drums, so I'm hoping the smell won't be an issues. It's a small coop, too... only four spam. |
