Derek Sherrell shows a low cost, open source house that he built in 90 days. He is giving away the plans for free for anyone who wants to build their own.

    If you want a more sustainable option (read: higher density, multi-family housing) that’s actually licensed openly, checkout Eco-Libre’s designs for the Launch-Nest.

    The structure is designed to house 30 people (18 meters x 7 meters, 5-stories high), off-grid solar PV (energy) and thermal (heating, cooking), and walls are made of CEB pressed on-site.
