Off the Grid Build: Rocky Mountains - New TV Series

Casting has begun for a new TV series: Off the Grid Build: Rocky Mountains

Like all of our projects, they are casting for unique builds, such as solar / wind power, self-sustaining energy systems, recycled materials, milling lumber on site, etc...

The show will showcase some the challenges it takes to get materials to a job site, battle mountain weather and animals!  

It doesn’t have to an 8,000 square foot home, just something that says "Rocky Mountains" and has unique features and/or challenges. 

So, are you ready to start design on that Off the Grid Home?  If so, call us and we'll consider pitching your project to the production company!

Tree Houzz, by Green Line Architects and David Rasmussen Design!

Houzz.com is a great site for finding design professionals, and for communicating design ideas for new homes, additions and remodels.  We have been using it with our clients;  reviewing their idea books, and taking cues from their aesthetic preferences to help direct our designs.
The Houzz staff wrote a very nice article about our tree house.  Take a look here:  GLA TreeHouzz.
