For prefab projects, try fabprefab.com. Consider green roofs, also. Try architecture.com. Look up "small houses". Just because contractors won't do it, doesn't mean you can't. Look up "natural building" to see how people are using their own hands and ancient techniques to minimize impact and energy expenditure, increase quality of life, reduce building costs by orders of magnitude, and generally deal with the issue directly. So glad you asked. Here’s an example for a warm climate:
