Newly-enlarged, energy-efficient windows bring the outdoors into the home, brightening a previously dark living room. Crown molding and triple-pane windows give a dramatic look to the recycled floors and furniture from the original home.
Changing an older home into a green home often takes minimal effort and expense.

homeowners make difficult decisions about the interior aesthetics of the home.
The homeowners are delighted with the workmanship and quality that went into every detail of this major transformation. “We are ending up with a new house essentially, while maintaining the unique qualities and character that made this our home to begin with. The end result is a top quality home that our family will enjoy for years to come.”
According to the NAHB Model Green Homebuilding Guidelines—based on the national standards—a builder, remodeler or developer must incorporate a minimum number of features in the following areas: energy, water and resource efficiency, lot and site development, indoor environmental quality and homeowner education. Some examples are:
•heating, air conditioning and ventilation must be appropriately sized for an efficient and properly ventilated home,
•fans in the kitchen and bathrooms should cycle fresh air inside, and release stale air,
•low-VOC paints and finishes and wall papers should be used as well.
This project took five months from design to build out. The result is a newly-remodeled Certified Green Home. l
