The Simple Villa House Plan Comes Alive

Hello All,

Well with our July 7th deadline looming for the Simple Villa we are working hard.  As you can see from the renderings above it is coming along nicely (we think).  With this design we are creating some real differences in our design palettes.  This of course causes some challenges in the construction documents, but nothing we at FreeGreen can't handle.  We look forward to releasing more this week, and helping you have your dream villa on July 7th.

Hello All,

As you can see from the image above, today, the FreeGreen website won the Outstanding Achievement Award in the area of Building & Construction, from the Interactive Media Council.  We would like to thank our web designers Fresh Tilled Soil and our developers at Extension Engine.  We highly recommend both of these companies and we would not be where we are today with out them.  We are very proud of our site and our team, and we look forward to working with these great companies to keep making the FreeGreen user experience better.

Quick Update - Keep An Eye Out

Posted June 11, 2008 13:57 by David

Tags: simple villa, printing, pr

Hello All,

Just a quick update tonight:

1) We have now set a date for the release of our next FreeGreen Product Line the Simple Villa.  We are aiming to get this out on July 7th.  We apologize for the slight delay on this but with the July 4th weekend in the way this is what we think is realistic (even FreeGreeners have to take vacations).

2) It looks like we are going to have some big PR announcements coming over the next few days so stay tuned.  We should know more tomorrow or early Friday on this and will certainly let you know as soon as we do.

3) By July 7th we are adding a new feature.  You will now be able to PRINT YOUR PLANS through FreeGreen.  Now we must admit that this will not be a free service.  We did look into it but could not make it work.  For a very competitive $60 per construction document set you will be able to print our plans (in 24" by 36" format) and ship them anywhere in the United States.  For our non-US users we are working on the details for outside the US shipping and will have that up and working soon.  We hope that you will support us through this service and come to use for all of your FreeGreen printing needs.

Hi All,

Thanks to everyone for your continued support and interest.  We have now broken 2,000 plan downloads (OK, we will now stop announcing plan download achievements until 10,000), 1,500 registered users, and are getting 30,000 visitors a month.  Again, not too bad for being around for 2 months and a week.

So the question that everyone has been asking is:  “what is up FreeGreen’s proverbial sleeves” More...
