Joe is the primary inventor of the C.O.R.E. Technology. He was led to the invention after hundreds of hours of collegiate study, an impact full awakening in May 2000, and nine years of independent research in sustainable design. In 2003, when he was elected Mayor of the Town of Cliff Village, Missouri, he took his knowledge out of the lab and into the field when he spearheaded efforts to decontaminate the village's wells. As a result, he was the first recipient of the Howard R. Swearer Student Humanitarian Award in Oklahoma and launched the Cliff Village Greenhouse Project mentioned above.
Michelle has begun working with SLS by taking the skeleton of the home design utilizing the C.O.R.E. Technology, and transforming it into a work of art. She is the principle architect of MPA Architecture, works in all areas of architecture, with a specialty in housing and sustainable design. She has over 26 years of architectural experience in all phases of the construction process and has worked in Philadelphia, Austin, Houston, New York, and Nashville. With architectural experience in liturgical, public, commercial, and residential developments, Michelle has designed and built churches, libraries, correctional facilities, art galleries, restaurants, hotels, and private residences; many of which are available for review on her website. She uses the principles of geometry in her most complex projects, resulting in very formal and organized plans that are efficient to build; which translates directly into the economics of the project.
As a sustainability engineer, Sarah spends her time educating construction professionals on the social and economic benefits of understanding and implementing sustainable building techniques. She's studied in Denmark with leading sustainability experts, investigating functioning methods for sustainable living, including: passive and active solar technologies, wind turbines, biogas digestion, humanure utilization, greywater restoration, and much more. Her knowledge and expereince in the field led to her position as Construction Manager for the Cliff Village Greenhouse Project, in which Sarah and co-inventor Joe Blundell built the first prototype for a self-heating greenhouse. This initial prototype, which was later developed into the C.O.R.E. Building Technology, melded together Sarah's construction and management skills in communication, engineering, and design, with her agricultural skills in organic farming, humanure composting, and edible landscaping. After further design development, Sarah founded Sustainable Living Systems, Inc. to offer The C.O.R.E. Technology.
