This eco-friendly concept is known to repurpose, rearrange and refresh your rooms like you see on HGTV - in one day!  Also known as Interior Makeovers and One Day Decorating.  Green DesignThere is lots of talk these days about Green Design.  What does that mean to you?  Springtime is a perfect time to look at our efforts and what we are doing for the environment, our homes and families.  How do you go about incorporating Green Design into your home?  I have always felt that Interior Redesign is one of the purest forms of Green Design. Our services focus on:  "Affordable rearrangements using your existing furnishings to create beautiful and functional living spaces!"
 
How do you do that?

  • Purchase items made from recycled materials.
  • Look for sustainable wood products made from bamboo or eucalyptus.
  • When you purchase locally, you also help the environment by reducing energy to transport products and you stimulate the local economy.
  • Go through your home and do an inventory of what furniture, artwork and accessories you really like.
  • Rethink those special furniture pieces.  Can they serve another function in another room?
  • Are they still in good condition and perhaps need a new coat of paint or refinishing?  For smaller jobs, you can use Howard Restor-A-Finish, found at Home Depot.  Sometimes it can eliminate refinishing your furniture.
  • Or maybe the time has come to recycle those pieces you do not like anymore to another person or donate it to charity.
  • What about consigning some of those pieces that you already have and perhaps recoup some of the money to purchase some updated accessories or artwork?  Many stores now carry "Green Products".
  • No matter what avenue you take, think about how to renew before buying something new.

Springtime is an excellent time for Renewal or Redesign.  Do you still need help?  We can help you by offering a personal customized Redesign.  Renew with Green Design in your space today!

Good ideas. Don't forget Goodwill or the local "assistance" ministry, usally operated by a coalition of churches. The local one in my area has a resale shop where items in good condition are sold and the money goes towards providing other services. Another idea, which I apply to myself is, fit your stuff in your space. Everything else is sold, donated, or given away.

Very good list.     I think it's important for realtors to explore achieving a green designation, now.
