可以提供第一線救災人員以及生還者立即的救災居所，之後還可以改建成為永久住房，「節能移動住宅」獲得建築生命週期挑戰競賽獎項。
比賽的設計概念主要在於鼓勵建築工業能夠重複使用拆除之後的建築殘骸或碎片，因為美國每年有超過1億公噸的建築殘骸會被送往垃圾掩埋場當作廢棄物處理。
而此次得獎的建築物是由柏克教授（Michael Berk）與密西西比州立大學建築學院共同設計完成，目前已經拆除。「節能移動住宅」堪稱為綠建築代表作，這種廠製建築物符合國際住宅規範（International Residential Code），房屋結構健全，容易拆解搬遷。其設計的目的為在有限的基礎設施或是沒有適當建築地點的條件下也能夠做使用。
An energy efficient mobile home that can be used for immediate disaster relief housing for first responders and survivors and later be converted to permanent housing has won the inaugural Lifecycle Building Challenge competition.
Ideas from the design contest are intended to inspire the building industry to reuse more of the 100 million tons of construction and demolition debris sent each year to landfills in the United States.
The winning structure, as yet unbuilt, was designed by Michael Berk, a professor with the Mississippi State University School of Architecture.
Called the GreenMobile? the affordable, factory-built unit meets the International Residential Code for housing with structurally sound foundations that demount for easy relocation. Units are designed to function in a place with a limited infrastructure or no utility grid in place.
