About
Today, our planet and all of her ecosystems are in peril. As a designer, I pledge to do my part to inspire awareness of the issues, and create through my work responsible and sustainable design.
To do this, we must carefully consider the types of finish materials and home products we select. Not only do we need to look at clean, eco-friendly materials, we also need to look further and consider where they came from: how they were manufactured; what are their ingredients; are they durable for the long haul; can they be re-used, re-purposed, salvaged?
These questions and more will continue to play a role in sustainable interior design. By specifying responsibly, the environmental impact our shelters have on this earth will begin to diminish. By using eco-friendly materials, along with energy-efficient appliances, low or no VOC finishes, we will have much cleaner air, less exposure to chemicals, less dependency on oil, and our homes will be more comfortable as a result,
It is important to continue our education on this issue, and as a designer, I will help to pave the way for a more sustainable earth. One in which we all can co-exist with nature and live a sustainable healthful lifestyle.
