Building Green Homes 13

Phoenix –  the mythical bird that never dies.

The late Dan Phillips of Phoenix Commotion was building sustainable homes. Among other methods reducing landfill, he recycles beer caps and wine corks for new floors – how unique.

In 2003  he was the winner of the ” Most Innovative Housing World Wide”  award.

Whilst the  “Bone  House” was being constructed,  it was unfortunately destroyed by fire.

The vision lives on! Phoenix Commotion is a local building initiative created to prove that constructing homes with recycled and salvaged materials has a viable place in the building industry. Their process involves using only apprentice labour and teaching marketable skills to anyone with a work ethic who is willing to swing a hammer. By keeping labour costs low and using donated or found materials, the homes created are truly affordable. No two are alike due to the myriad of materials used, so there is an artistic element that makes Phoenix Commotion homes unique. They target single parents, artists, and families with low incomes. They require the homeowner to be involved with the planning and construction of his or her own home. The result is a person is empowered, not only by the useful knowledge of building skills but by the opportunity to become part of a community as a vested participant. [images via google]
