One Community is creating a more enriching lifestyle for everyone through Highest Good education that is for all ages, applicable in any environment, adaptable to individual needs, far exceeds traditional education standards, and more fun for both the teachers and the students:
This last week the core team redesigned the Ultimate Classroom page with the help of two weeks of interviews with Satyanna Luken (Author, Montessori Teacher, and founder of Imagine Wisdom Education (I-WE)). This redesign took all of Satyana’s input and suggestions and combined them with our months of additional research into the classroom designs and methodologies of Montessori, Waldorf, Orff, Reggio, Multi-Intelligences, Bloom’s Taxonomy, and Study Tech. Here’s a snapshot of what this redesign looks like:
One Community is creating a more enriching lifestyle for everyone through Highest Good food that is more diverse, more nutritious, locally grown and sustainable, and part of our open source botanical garden model to support and share bio-diversity:
This last week the core team finished adding the diversity details to the Wax Gourd and Winter Melon sections of the large-scale gardening page where we featured the 4 your see here:
We also added Cassabanana to the page with the 2 you see featured here. Cultural considerations, purchasing details, and planting guidelines can also be found on the large-scale gardening page:
One Community is creating a more enriching lifestyle for everyone through Highest Good housing that is artistic and beautiful, more affordable, more space efficient, lasts longer, DIY buildable, and constructed with healthy and sustainable materials:
This last week the core team completed another 25% of the earthbag construction footers, foundation, and flooring tutorial page you see below. This brings us to about 40% complete with this page and you can now start to really see the level of detail we’re providing. The world image you see repeating here is where we’ll be adding extensive tutorial videos as part of the crowdfunding campaign.
We also completed another 20% of the total energy infrastructure rollout details for off-grid community creation for 50-400+ people. What you see here are the new additions happening behind the scenes in our GoogleDocs before being put through a final thorough check and edit as we add it to the website:

Philip Gill (Interior and Furniture Designer and Owner of Philip Gill Design) also helped us redesign part of the Murphy Bed end tables. Our team then updated the main image you see here with all his additions. This design will also be part of the crowdfunding campaign:
One Community is creating a more enriching lifestyle for everyone through a Duplicable and Sustainable City Center that is LEED Platinum certified/Sustainable, can feed 200 people at a time, provide laundry for over 300 people, is beautiful, spacious, and saves resources, money, and space:
This last week Karl Harris (Architect Drafter, Designer, and founder of Harris Design & Technology Services) finished a complete redesign of the Duplicable City Center elevator specifics in CAD, requiring expansion of the space needs and an associated redesign of all 4 floors. He also added a necessary 10′ by 20′ boiler room. Here is the updated floor plan:
One Community is creating a more enriching lifestyle for everyone through a Highest Good society approach to living that is founded on fulfilled living, the study of meeting human needs, Community, and making a difference in the world:
This last week the core team updated our progress page covering all the areas we’re seeking help, and the specifics of our design process and areas of focus that you can see here:
We also updated our Who We Are and Who We Are Looking For page describing the specific skill sets our project and our team embody and seek to work with:
