Why not? They are easy to understand and compare, so the next time you are looking to purchase a home, wouldn't it be great to flip over the paperwork and read the label?
Michelle Kaufmann recently had an energy consumption study done on her Sunset BreezeHouse comparing the energy usage of her best-selling design to the traditional American home. She created these labels to communicate the benefits of a green home to consumers.
"By quantifying the advantages of a sustainably designed home we can express that information in universal, easy to understand terms using something as simple as a label (like the ones we created above and below) in the same way the advantages and disadvantages of food are expressed through nutrition labels." ~ Michelle Kaufmann
