I'm Blushing! Praise for FHN From Noted Modernist Architect Greg La Vardera

I've been really fortunate that since not long after I started this blog I've had regular visits and very kind encouragement from noted modernist architect, Greg La Vardera of LamiDesign. Greg is a really nice guy whose work is very inspiring to me. I regularly drool over his modern house plans and check out his great blog for news on his many projects.

And so, I consider it the highest compliment that Greg recently mentioned Future House Now in his e-mail newsletter. I know I'm being immodest, but I just can't help sharing his remarks with you:

"Future House Now: http://www.futurehousenow.com/ This is a blog written in the voice of an everyday person seeking a modern eco friendly house - John Commoner is the pen name. He truly gets it, he understands the aspirations and struggles we all face in trying to find a modern home in a marketplace that is just plain unfriendly to the idea. He is posting commentary and resources that will help many find their modern home. Hey, it would be nice if everybody built one of our house plans but kid myself not, its not going to happen that way. I want everybody to find their own modern house - Future House Now is like a light house in a storm. Check it out."

How cool is that? Thanks Greg!!!!!

You can join Greg's e-mail list on the front page of his modern house plans site. And do take a look at his blog. There are some exciting things happening. He's revealed some new designs there, and right now he's posting a lot about one of his popular Plat House designs that is nearing completion in Vermont (below). Personally, I like this house a lot and cannot wait to see him post word and pics of the final completed home.




Greg, keep up the great work and thank you so much for your support of Future House Now!
