Green Architecture consumers are a relatively new market category that is increasingly being
profiled, understood and sought after. The major motivations for customers to purchase a green home include environmental responsibility, lower energy use and electricity bills, and benefits to personal health. The architectural design is poised to take advantage of a paradigm shift in product markets.
