Tween designs a house. Could you do that?

Tween designs a house. Could you do that? TweenTribune reports that the designer of two houses being constructed in Great Britain will have to have her mom drive her to the work site. That's because she is only 12 years old. Jennifer Brook, of Rugby, Great Britain, entered a contest two years ago to design an eco-friendly house.

Her ideas included lots of solar panels and light switches on the floor which could be activated by people walking over them. Jennifer's ideas will be used in the plans for two houses, called carbon zero homes, to be build by the summer of 2011.

The houses will be used of 70 percent recycled materials.

Jennifer said: "I think it's really fantastic that a house is actually going to be built that uses some of the ideas from my design. I can't wait to visit it with some of my friends once it's been finished." And, the two green-eco friendly houses, will be called "Jennifer's Houses".

Wow i dont think I could do that but I think Its cool that that little girl can do somthing like that.Good job I wish I could do that but thats cool.

That is really cool! I wish I could do something like that! That girl must be so proud of herself! I sure would be! Wow!

A twelve years old girl has designed two houses in Great Britain, that's amazing! I think she will be a famous designer in the future, and I couldn't do that, although I want to be a designer, maybe in clothing.

thats really cool and sounds like a lot of fun to create. im not a good drawer at all and this has a lot of talent for a little girl. Keep up the good work!!

Wow! That's really cool. I mean I'm amazed that shes 12 and got a house to have her ideas and called Jennifer's house!!!!!!!! I would love to do that!

Wow, thats amazing. Only twelve years old, and already making a house all by yourself! I was probably learning how to build mash potato volcanoes. HAHAHHAHA. Well we all could do something as outstanding as that, only if we tried.

Wow its really cool that she cares about the enviorment and desighned and eco friendly house! I dont think i could have desighned a house that cool.

I agree I could never design a house that cool. Especially one that is an eco friendly house and has some cool features like the lights that turn on when you walk over them.

I could not design the house if my life depended on it. That would take a lot of time and a lot of determination. Its also really cool that her houses that she modeld out are being built.

That is amazing that a Jennifer can know how to designed the 2 houses and is only 12 years old! And is able to see a real house of hers constructed and called "Jennifer's Houses". I wouldn't know how to build a tree imagine a house that surprises me that Jennifer has great that capability of having that glorious talent!
