Mike Lucas, Project Manager: Mike believes that sustainability and aesthetics aren't mutually exclusive, as evidenced in the beauty found in the house he built on Abbott Ave S in 2005. Interest in that project along with encouragement by friends led Mike to start a design/build company (the gudhouse company) that promotes that philosophy. Mike's talent with design, plus his project management skills is reflected in his projects.
Mike Otto, Green Builder: Mike started his contracting company in 1992. Over the years, he developed a strong belief in good design and sustainable building methods and materials. In addition to remodeling, he spends a lot of time educating clients and the general public about the foundations of good design and sustainability with an emphasis on why they are essential to residential construction.(Fair and Square Remodel.) |
