Livinghomes and Wired Magazine Announce the First-ever Wired LivinghomeLivingHomes in partnership with WIRED magazine is proud to announce construction on the first-ever WIRED LivingHome.
This modern luxury residence will serve as an example of how people can effectively, balance green living with high technology and high design.
The WIRED LivingHome will be open to the public for tours, sustainable programming and charity-driven events for three weeks in late fall 2007.
The presenting sponsor of the showcase home is BMW CleanEnergy, who will be providing Hydrogen 7 vehicles for shuttles and test drive rides during the public tours.
A percentage of proceeds from ticket sales will benefit Global Green USA, a national leader fighting for solutions to global warming including green building, and Enterprise, the national leader in creating environmentally sustainable homes and communities for low-income people.
Located in an exclusive Los Angeles neighborhood, the 4,057 square foot WIRED LivingHome is designed to attain at least a Gold rating from the United States Green Building Council's (USGBC) LEED for Homes Program.
Consistent with its focus on sustainable design, LivingHomes and WIRED are deconstructing rather than demolishing the property's existing house, reducing the amount of building materials sent to landfill.
