Review: I thought I might bring your attention to a young Italian architect now living in New York, named Andrea Salvini (male). He's currently undertaking a reconceptualization of the American cabin. Here is a recent article on his work: http://www.inhabitat.com/2009/06/04/modern-american-cabin/ I found the concept interesting -- a European architect who undertakes a reimagining of an historical American vernacular form like the country cabin, and updates it both aesthetically and to the age of eco-efficiency.

Review: Hello, I´m from mexico city, one of the biggest cities in the world, I love construction and engineering unfortunately the country is still far behind in many industrial technologies, I wish we could get a couple of big companies to settle here, I guarantee they´ll sell 10 times more than in the U.S. because we have far more homeless people here. thanks and good luck to all, god bless

Review: I lived in a '79 model maufactured home in SE Washington several years ago when Mother Nature dumped record snowfall on us. I had a stick built attached garage which suddred a collapsed roof while the home was solid. Also, when the gales blew, the home was still while at other site-built homes, I could feel breezes inside. I think the prejudices held by the insurance companies should be legally challenged by the housing industry. They are truly out-of-date.

Review: I do hear about these breaking down after few years or starting to get wear & tea. Although to have this in a downtown style of loft is not a bad idea. Another big thing is financing. Who will finance such a thing?
