BLUElab and the Beginning of our Team

Better Living Using Engineering laboratory, or BLUElab, is a University of Michigan student run organization that works on sustainability issues at home and abroad. Our team, the Living Buildings Challenge Team, was formed in the beginning of the Winter 2013 academic semester. We are tasked with working on helping two local Ann Arbor residents, Matt and Kelly Grocoff, attempt to retrofit their 112 year old, historic home to be net zero water.

We are a team of students that represent many different majors, all working to create a more sustainable present and future.
