At Truehome.net, we apply a human factors approach to the process of designing living space. What we are doing is not yet available online - but our front end is online so those interested can at least get the idea. The project is called Truehome and the url is http://www.truehome.net. We expect to launch in the next three months.

It has a really distinct visual design, but perhaps more importantly I felt the site is a great example of the power in revisiting something we thought we had solved way back with Web 0.2, adding just a dash of social spice mixed with restrictive simplicity and sitting back to see how (or if :) people use it.
