Big step today - we actually purchased the home plans. Rod had been doing some research about passive solar houses. We bought a book called The Sun Inspired Home and have been looking at the plans in this book. We ended up buying the plans from their website www.sunplans.com. The cost was $1,645 in order to get the autoCAD files, PDF drawings, and the PDF energy specifications. We have 3 builders that we are getting quotes from. The only changes we are making to the plans are making the mechanical room into Tina's bedroom, making the root cellar into a closet the girls will share, and taking a portion of the rec room and making that the mechanical closet. We are also going to do ICF on both floors rather than just the basement.
