For years, Clemson has been designing houses for Habitat for Humanity during their homecoming week. Each year, there are rows of volunteer students that gather on Bowman Field and begin construction on a home being donated to a family in the area. The house being built this year is based up plans designed by students for a competition. It has a much greener design than seen in years past.
This home was designed with passive solar capabilities in mind. This wasn’t the only special attention. Consideration was give to everything from the caulking to the type of nails that were used. The home will not only be helping the family to have a home but they will receive a house that can cut down on bills and last for years.
