Hybrid Living has over 35 years In general building with 22 years in hybrid building experience; being in the environmental field for most of those years has learned how to compile the latest innovated technology’s and combined them to create the future in home and commercial dwellings. Today’s home building practices are obsolete before there finished. Technical innovations-in cars, communications, and computers surround us; yet our largest lifetime purchase, our house, is built essentially the same as it was eighty years ago. The home that will literally define our lives for twenty to forty years into the future, is not future oriented. Current standards for buildings are the major contributing factor of earth’s destruction, from creating the materials to heating and cooling our dwellings far exceeds that from automobiles.
