Green Home Inspirations
You are not quite ready to go green? Start small use no or low-VOC paints and water based finishes on your floor or use wool carpets with natural rubber backing. Making these changes alone drastically improves your air quality.
Here are some green home inspirational photos:
The use of low-VOC, the refinished kitchen cabinets and hardwood floors, halogen lighting, and energy star appliances complete this eco-friendly kitchen.
The pillows are made with vintage recycled fabrics and natural materials. The bedding is made from organic hemp, linen, and cotton fabrics that were dyed with soy-based inks. The lamps are made out of recyclable glass. Isn't the chandelier beautiful??
The fireplace mantel and built-ins are made out of solid wood. The furniture have natural fabrics cover and custom-made cushions filled with cotton and wool.
The existing cabinets were painted with low-VOC paint and this island is made out of solid wood. The granite was finished with non-toxic sealer. The wood floor was finished with water-based urethane.
My favorite photo, this antique chest was recycled and then a wood top was added to create a stunning breakfast bar.
Hard to tell from this photo, but the wall is made of out low-VOC emitting vinyl covering. The vintage table was refinished with beautiful benches to match. The seating is made from natural fabrics. The flooring is made out of natural cork.
The walls are made out of renewable bark of cork trees and most of the furnishings were recycled.
I hope these photos have inspired you to start going green!

Love the photos of the cork oak flooring and the cork wall coverings. Very eco-friendly, and healthy for homes and businesses alike. Thanks for showing designers what they can do with cork oak.
