// The Idealog Blog
Somewhere out there, making it’s way slowly but surely, are bits and pieces of a house that, when reassembled in the US, could earn its creators some pretty prestigious notoriety. In their latest blog, the First Light team detail the process involved in getting all the pieces of their house safely across to the US to participate in the US Department of Energy’s 2011 Solar Decathlon competition—not the easiest of feats when the NZ Building Code compliant house also has to meet US Building codes standards, just to gain entry into the US.

Since the First Light team’s last blog for us, the house in Wellington’s Frank Kitts Park has been in the process of gradually being disassembled and packed up in preparation for its long journey to the US. But with rain making things a little dirty and numerous house parts to carefully label and organise, disassembling hasn’t been without its challenges.
