Mark Feldman has been building and designing solar and green homes since 1976. His own pioneering home of thirty years has several passive solar heating, daylighting, and solar water heating systems. It also exhibits water harvesting and xeriscaping techniques only now being embraced by the typical builder.

In recent homes, he has used the latest gray water and alternative septic systems. Sustainability is an integral component of all aspects of design and construction. It is essentially another word for lasting quality. Homes built by High Desert Construction Inc. are a tonic for the disposable ethic of the mass market.
