From The Build Show.
On Episode 8 of "Build Across America," Matt visits Asheville, NC, to explore how Alair Asheville – Red Tree Builders designs for performance, resilience, and wellness in a temperate rainforest climate. Builder Brandon Bryant showcases innovations like precast concrete walls, advanced insulation, ERVs, dehumidifiers, and geothermal systems that support energy efficiency, durability, and healthy indoor air. The tour highlights Red Tree’s net zero ready homes, including the Olivette agri-hood community with solar panels, rain gardens, and climate-resilient design tailored for the region’s terrain and weather challenges. Brandon also shares how Hurricane Helene reinforced the need for disaster preparedness and resilient construction, while reflecting on his company’s evolution from green building to wellness-focused, net positive homes. The episode closes with a focus on community, mental health in construction, and Red Tree’s membership in the Alair network, which strengthens customer experience while advancing sustainable building practices.
