For the past four years ecofabulous has been partnering with exemplary pre-fab architects and builders to design the Dwell on Design showhouse.

May is pregnancy awareness month (PAM), and though I have no intention of rejoining the ranks of the breeders, I have certainly been there and wish that Anna Getty & Alisa Donner’s aptly-named event existed when I was expecting.

Green Building:

Like a C6, Like a C6…Only Smaller

C2 2 bedroom

The new C6.2 is a 2 bedroom, 2 bath, 1100 square foot version of Living Homes’ C6. It has the same finishes, fixtures and LEED Platinum level environmental program as its big sister.

Happy Earth Month from me (Zem) and team ecofabulous! As ebay’s eco-expert, I can tell you that every single day is Earth Day at Green.ebay.com, but April is a very special opportunity to help all ebay shoppers, whether tech-savvy trendsetter, outdoor adventurer, or taste-making fashionista get their green groove on.

The RE:VOLT

Team ecofabulous has sniffed out a major development in the eco automotive category: General Motors is readying their next generation hybrid technology for release under the new moniker RE:VOLT. Unlike the current production Chevy Volt, which relies on an electric + gasoline combination, the RE:VOLT removes all dependence on fossil fuels and powers the on-board generator with natural gas.

Enter the C6! The Living Homes C6, built by Cavco, is available in most states for $179,000 ($145/sf). The C6 can be fully constructed in less than two months and installed on-site in one day.
