Unity Center USA will be designed with appropriate technologies as well as eco-building approaches that can be built by community members with professional guidance and assistance. Our goal is to help client communities in both the developed and developing regions design and build their environments, matching their needs up with a variety of technologies, methods and building styles. These projects will serve as training center for OVF as well as demonstration site for the practical attributes of our integrated/whole systems approach to sustainable development.

In relation to business and economic development. we plan to design our Unity Center project taking the social enterprise approach, developing products and services to fund our community development operations around the world. The OVF USA Unity Center will promote sustainable eco-living focusing on these these areas:

			Authentic Culture
			Fair-Trade and Organic certified products
			Relaxing ecotourism experiences that offer a process of getting reconnected with the earth—back to the root

We envision a place where our ideals are put into the context of workable solutions creating a livable urban space where residents share knowledge and talents, give time and expertise, and take responsibility for themselves, their neighbors and the planet. Through the thoughtful application of ecological design concepts, we can make a powerful statement about healing the earth and ourselves, demonstrate the power of appropriate technologies and human scale architectures that value, and uplift the human spirit by creating built environments that are authentically designed to maximize the quality of our lives.
