A joint partnership of Project Green Build, a 501(c) 3 educational non-profit, and Fazzolari
Custom Homes of Vancouver, Washington, the Felida Living House marries craftsmanship,
education, and sustainability in suburban Clark County. Built in Messner Estates, a bungalow-style community, the home will serve as an educational classroom helping the building
industry, codes officials, and general public understand the systems, cost and performance
of a Living Building. Open for tours, the partnership will use sponsorships, donations, and
trades-in kind to subsidize costs of construction, with profits from the sale of the home to be
used for further green building education in Clark County.
