Nauhaus Prototype

Overview

List Price: 
$400,000

The Nauhaus (pronounced now house) is a building system born from one simple thought: what would happen if we considered our present climate change crisis as an opportunity to make life better? The Nauhaus works because it brings together a number of technical and artistic disciplines to create a truly integrated building system. Our prototype project is an exciting example of the results of this sort of synthesis. Check the Nauhaus website at www.thenauhaus.com for more information.
