CARBONDALE, CO 5Br/3Ba This custom contemporary manufactured house in Carbondale, Colorado, is located in a gated community with strict design guidelines dictating massing and materials. Nevertheless, it achieves a clean and contemporary look while conforming to the limitations of modular manufactured housing. The house will be composed of nine modules that will be trucked to the site and craned into place, plus the site built garage and double-story rear porch. Both active and passive solar systems are featured including the innovative “Sun Box” that collects heat in the attic space for distribution into the house as well as facilitated purging the warm house air on typically cool and dry summer nights. Photo voltaic panels flank the sun box on the roof, but bulky vacuum tube hot water collectors are more placed discretely inside the sun box where they will not be visible from the street The efficient 3200sf two-story plan offers 5 bedrooms and mountain, river, and golf course views. Bonsai Communities’ concern for sustainable and healthy environments ensures that the house maximizes FSC certified wood, locally harvested beetle-kill cedar siding, non-toxic glues, caulks and sealants, no-VOC and low-VOC paints and a host of other responsible products. |
