At Furman U., an Uncommon Cottage

The Cliffs Cottage at Furman University, built with the magazine Southern Living, certainly is dreamy. But as a sustainable model home, it will also be a living laboratory for green building — a place where students and professors can learn about the latest materials and techniques in construction. You can read a story about the Cliffs Cottage in the latest edition of The Chronicle, and you can see a slideshow with lots of pictures of the house.
