domino & TreeHugger's Green List: Renovating
by Collin Dunn, Corvallis, OR, USA on 02.22.07
When it comes to greening your home, we much prefer renovating to starting from scratch with new construction, so TreeHugger was happy to help domino magazine find some great resources for new floors, kitchens and lighting for the Green List in their March green issue. For many of the items, we were sure to offer regional options, so folks across the country could find sources closer to home, to cut down on shipping. When it came to flooring, we went with reclaimed wood, like Trestlewood and Pioneer Millworks, FSC-certified sources, like the wood at EcoTimber, and mod, green carpet from Interface. When it comes to the kitchen, green cabinets from Henrybuilt and countertops from Richlite were high on the list, and don't forget to recycle with the EcoPod. Check out more green renovating tips and sources at dominomag.com, and stay tuned for more from the Green List. ::domino's Green List: Renovating
