We’re delighted to hear that eco home company, Blu Homes just announced it has “acquired the assets of mkDesigns.”
As fans of the beautiful and affordable Glidehouse (above & below), mkLotus and Sunset Breezehouse green prefab homes designed by Michelle Kaufmann, we were not happy campers when we learned a few months ago that after being in business since 2002, her company had “closed shop.” Blu Homes will now make these sleek prefabs available across the U.S.; and Kaufmann will serve as a design consultant to Blu and join its advisory board.
“We are proud to advance the sustainable clean living model that Michelle Kaufmann so courageously began,” said Bill Haney, Blu Homes president. “The addition of Michelle to Blu’s team strengthens our design abilities and adds mkDesigns to the homes we offer, giving consumers a broad range of luxury in the most economical, green and convenient way.”
“I am thrilled the work mkDesigns started will be continued with Blu Homes,” said Michelle Kaufmann. “Blu and I share similar values and by using its extraordinary proprietary technology, Blu can offer Americans across the country a wide range of beautiful, convenient and economical green homes. I am happy to be working with them on a common vision of the future that we can all be proud of.”
