Celebrate Earth Day with These Low-Impact Prefab Homes | Human Interest | Scoop.it

Alchemy Architects, a small firm based in St. Paul, MN, has devoted their work to sustainable building practices—often through the process of prefabricated modular designs. By utilizing recycled and reused matters, along with building strategies that reduce waste, Alchemy rethinks the prototypical vacation home by striving for simplicity and minimal use of materials. Their rustic, often oxidized buildings have a way of sitting harmoniously within their settings, while yielding a minimized carbon (and physical) footprint.

To celebrate Earth Day, check out Alchemy's weeHouses, which exemplify the firm's eco-conscious reputation.
