Sunhawk Window

***Latest News..."Hey, I made that!"
The Sunhawk House and it's Stained Glass door has been shown on TV!
This house was featured on Discovery Channel's "Planet Green" series "World's Greenest Homes".
The SunHawk episode first aired in 2008 and is still aired periodically.
Check out your local programming or log onto www.Discovery Channel.com.
I hope you get that channel because this truly is an amazing home.
History: This window was also featured in Natural Home Magazine (Nov/Dec 2004), the "Sun Hawk House" is a solar powered wonder built by John Schaeffer and his wife Nancy Hensley, founders of Real Goods Solar Living Institute in Hopland, CA. where I constructed the window in the Sun Hawk's front door.
Note...there are 144 pieces in the tail feathers (center of the window), after that, I lost count! This window measures 38" x 27".
