What is Environmental Design? Green-Built Home? Eco-friendly Design?
These are familiar buzz words of the moment. Within the last few years,
the construction industry has gone through something of a renaissance
when it comes to the environment. While the practice of Sustainable
Design has been commonplace on the east and west coasts (particularly
California and New York),it has finally come to the Midwest in a big way.
When
you think of Green Design, what comes to mind? Recycled products?
Or reusing products during a project? Or even recycling trash removed
from
a job site. These are all great examples of what green design is. The
thing
that most people don't realize is every aspect of a new construction or
remodeling project can utilize Green or Sustainable Design.
Everything
from where construction waste goes, to how new products are
installed, to what products are installed, can incorporate these philosophies.
When we look at a project from a Sustainable standpoint, we start with
the energy efficiency of the home, the health of it's occupants, the
future value of the property, and finally the sustainability of the building
itself.
While
this may all sound like a lot to take in for just a small kitchen or bath-
room project, we are committed to Green Design and are passionate about
the processes and products we use. All subcontractors and suppliers are
informed up front that we intend for the project to be sustainable.
