Pasadena Ecohouse

The Pasadena EcoHouse wants to be the first LEED Platinum home in the US to be made with Structural Concrete Insulated Panels ("SCIP").  The home was designed by Studio-RMA and will use SCIPs because they are strong, flexible, efficient, and non-toxic, if made with the right materials.  Of note, the home’s construction will be produced for TV to showcase accelerated construction on a budget in an environmentally friendly manner.
