Green Remodeling Review
Sunday, November 21st, 2010
Barry Katz was kind enough to send me a copy of his new book. Being a recently selected as a member of the ASID National Sustainable Council, one of our first assignments was to update the bibliography. The book couldn’t have arrived at a better time. Practical Green Remodeling extensively covers areas like insulation, ventilation and alternative energy systems. Filled with plenty of eye candy and pictures of Americana style homes, it’s easy (and fun) to read in an afternoon. If you’re just beginning your journey to the green side of home remodeling, get up to speed quickly with this power trio: Green Interior Design by Lori Dennis, Practical Green Remodeling by Barry Katz and REGREEN, a joint effort of ASID and the USGBC. You’ll gain a vocabulary and grasp of the industry that would make Ed Begley Jr. proud.

Dwell On Design 2010
Monday, July 12th, 2010
Unlike 2009, this year’s DOD had a pulse, jam packed with people and product. The producers and participants turned up the heat with every booth more stylish than the next. This year I was asked to speak on two panels: ASID Glamorous Green Secrets and the joint project of the USGBC and ASID- ReGreen. Paired up for the third or fourth time with world renown Bau Biologist, Mary Cordaro, it was invigorating to see both audiences with plenty of interested folks standing all the way in the back.
My daughter and I loved the Paul Frank sponsored kid’s play area and the gumball dispensed SEED BOMBS. The idea behind the green ammo is to throw them at abandoned urban lots, wait for rain and watch the wild flowers grow. It reminded me of being a bad little girl who always had a good heart.
The show was a huge success and more evidence that green power continues to gain strength.
