When designing green housing one must consider not only the impact a house will have on the environment but also the impact that house will have on the health of its inhabitants. The houses I design create a clean, healthy living environment for residents, which I believe is an essential element in any house.
Non-Off-Gassing Materials: We never use voc paints in our houses and we make sure that we use only formaldehyde-free materials.
Air Filtration: Our houses incorporate hepa air filters and are designed for natural ventilation. While air exchangers ensure both continuous clean air and an energy efficient home.
Foam Insulation: We choose our foam insulation based in part on how likely it is to fend off the growth of mold.
Hard Floor Surfaces: Using hard floor surfaces protects against allergens and molds that might thrive in hard to clean carpeting.
