Hi, Huf Haus is actually a German company (with offices in various places around Europe). I know this because I went to look at one of their model homes here in Switzerland a while back and talked to the sales people.
Also, I didn’t really get the impression that the houses can be built on your own. We were told that they send a team of experienced builders to build the house. The price includes that cost if I remember correctly. The advantage is that since the parts are pre-assembled at their factory, building time is faster than with normal house construction.
Grand Designs, a home design/building show in the UK, followed the building of a Huf Haus last year:

Hi all can thy putup
A house in the USA?
Tricia on 23 Aug 2008 at 5:34 am #
I love it !
Is there a way to have this home built
here in the USA ?
How hard would it be to adapt solar panels
to the roof? And to make it energy-efficient?
This is just beautiful…I love it !
Great job…and my congrats to the designer!

Excellent design ,indeed. It should not be a problem to build one of those in the USA. First I wanted to go for a Huf House but then my wife found another company doing very much the same style in Germany. They already built houses in Japan. Since it’s a pre-fab as well, construction in the US shouldn’t be a problem!
As for the energy efficiency, I can only speak for the house we chose(www.davinci-haus.de). It’s got a brilliant energy-rating, with triple glazing and stuff. Should be similar in this case!

Gerd,
What are your reasons that sold you to building a Davinci haus as opposed to Huf Haus?
I checked out thier site and I just love these homes.
I was thinking we would have to move to Europe to live in one of these. I am looking to see if they build these homes in the USA or not.

I am in Colorado.
Is there anyone in the USA doing a prefabricated house like the Huf Haus product they are building in Germany?
Has anyone imported a house like this to the USA?
I can see problems with different plumbing and electrical standards so it would need to take care of that issue.
However the factory fabrication should be something that can be achieved in the USA.
The opportunity to build an energy efficient home and take advantage of the Obama grants and tax incentives should have someone building these homes but where are they?
