Are you planning to attend the upcoming West Coast Green home show and conference at Ft. Mason? October 1st, 2nd and 3rd we will be there with bells on. Plan to stop by the Green By Design booth # 228 in the Herbst Pavillion. While looking over the web site for West Coast Green I can see many new products I want to learn more about. There will be dynamic speakers and most important to me this year – many opportunities to network with other companies in the Bay Area dedicated to building green.
I want to thank the group of people in advance who are working hard behind the scenes to set up our Green By Design booth. Ingrid Ramsay with the Innovative Design Group. Ingrid invests so much time and enthusiasm promoting green building - please stop by to see the beautiful FSC certified Zebra Wood cabinet on display. Innovative Design Group cabinets are made locally just up the road in Rohnert Park.
Thank you to Pat Miller, founder and creative wizard of Bohemian Stoneworks. In spite of moving to a wonderful new facility in Sebastopol, Pat and his team have found the time to promote their beautiful concrete countertops, vessels and tabletops. Made with recyled content and created by craftsman right in Sebastopol – they are green and local too. Two beautiful tables will be on display in our booth.
Thanks to Janis and Sean Hannigan who co-own Haute Textile Flooring. Headquartered in Mill Valley, mother and son team carry many lines of flooring from FSC hardwoods, to cork, and natural fiber carpets. Need an expert to help you decide on your next flooring decision – Sean and Janis are the best in the business. Be sure to stop by booth 228 to see some of the great selection Haute Textile Flooring carries.
Few builders match the expertise of Caletti Jungsten Construction. John Caletti and Jeff Jungsten are at the epicenter of green building in Marin County. Beautiful, energy- efficient, durable homes. Interested in latest clean tech systems? John and Jeff are building a new home in Kentwoodlands with geo-thermal. If you want to look at sustainable construction – then you need to see what Caletti Jungsten are doing!
Last but far from least I want to thank my terrific and talented staff at Mahoney Architects & Interiors. We have done so much over the past year to promote going green in the Bay Area from hosing green chamber events, supporting clean energy initiatives, to leading smaller educational events on rainwater harvesting, energy efficient lighting and showcasing emerging green building materials. When I asked my team, “Will you all support going to West Coast Green?” I was given a resounding and positive answer – “Yes!” Because we believe it is the right thing to be doing.
Stop by to see the green projects we have designed. Our recently completed Levinson Residence in Tiburon is getting recognition – from the SF Chronicle, the Marin IJ, Marin magazine and West Coast Green. Our project is won the WCG Remodel the Future award this year and it is one of the first remodels to be Green Point Rated.
Thanks – I am so happy to be a part of the Green By Design team.
