Ecospace
We’re entering the realm of ‘affordability’ in 2010 with this green studio composed of roughly 120 sq feet of room. I dig the large windows and such features as a green roof, heated water-resistant rubber flooring, sustainable red cedar insulated walls, and the small footprint offered by
Ecospace. A standard model costs about $37K. Check out there website as well its very well designed and gives great information on there product.
The Mini-Jot
Although if your looking for another cheaper alternative to align with your budget then how about the
Mini-Jot. At roughly $100 per square foot, this 120sq ft. studio can fit perfectly as a home office, guest house, etc. The structure is designed with passive solar in mind to reduce heating and cooling costs; as well as insulated lightweight structural panels, super-efficient windows, and optional concrete flooring to act as a heat sink. With the money you save on building costs, you could also add on solar, a wood stove, or other cool green features.

this is pretty cool stuff...i like the design of the structures and it seems pretty affordable if you're willing to sacrifice the extra space for a cleaner conscious. i look forward to seeing more eco-friendly posts about emerging green technology.
