Our sign - six square feet, per spec!
One of the biggest challenges for LEED for Homes has been getting the word out. Commercial property owners have embraced LEED. The federal government and many state and local governments have mandated LEED certification for certain project types. School districts love LEED, and the new(ish) LEED for Healthcare rating system has also begun to be widely adopted by hospitals and clinics. But residential projects - both single family and multifamily - have been behind the curve. So in addition to homeowner awareness and education, LEED for Homes encourages public education and awareness through certain points available. This sign outside our home (along with this blog) help us let our neighbors and other passersby that our home is unconventionally and sustainably built.
