Nat­ural Home

Our homes should be our safe sanc­tu­ar­ies. They should nur­ture our well being on all lev­els. But the mod­ern home often does not.

Increas­ing num­bers of peo­ple are devel­op­ing ill­nesses like envi­ron­men­tal aller­gies, sick-building syn­drome and mul­ti­ple chem­i­cal sen­si­tiv­ity due to chem­i­cal and bio­log­i­cal tox­ins found inside mod­ern homes.

Speak­ing about Eco Build­ings and Green Homes

 

 

 

“These homes are bril­liant!” (Con­fer­ence attendee)

Man­dala Homes had the honor of being present at the Global Buy­ers Mis­sion in Whistler, B.C. Sept 8–10, 2011.

The room buzzed with hun­dreds of peo­ple from all parts of the world; China, Japan Korea, India, Tai­wan, Viet­nam, USA and Canada. The words from many lan­guages drifted in the air and the col­ors green and  brown were dom­i­nant in the room. BC wood prod­ucts were dis­played in every con­ceiv­able form.

Man­dala Homes received a great deal of atten­tion due to our unique strength as an expe­ri­enced pre­fab­ri­ca­tion builder spe­cial­iz­ing in homes that are:

  • Hur­ri­cane Resistant
  • Wind Resis­tant
  • Earth­quake Resistant
  • Energy Effi­cient
  • Pre­fab­ri­cated Round Home Kits

Lars Chose, Pres­i­dent, had the priv­i­lege to present a les­son to groups of archi­tects dur­ing the con­fer­ence. The pre­sen­ta­tion had two parts:

  1. The Intel­li­gence of Round
  2. Energy Effi­cient Wall Systems

The con­fer­ence was a delight­ful oppor­tu­nity to con­nect with a global com­mu­nity of entre­pre­neurs, col­leagues and peo­ple inter­ested in safe , sus­tain­able and beau­ti­ful buildings.
