Three ideas to make your home GREENER today
Saturday, 12:06 | posted by John
Many look at our home and wish we could do some things to make it greener and help the environment. However, once your home is built, there is not much you can do to change your home structurally without a large expenditure. My house falls under this rule as I moved into a house that was already constructed three years ago.
I can make a difference now by thinking of what I can do to contribute to helping the environment and bringing focus on this important issue. The first thing I thought about was what things do I have daily contact with that impact the environment. A few things that came to mind were energy consumption, water usage and garbage. We use these three all the time in our daily living.
1. A simple idea to help conserve water is to use more hand sanitizer instead of water. Cleanwell products offers a hand sanitizer that is alcohol free which is made of all natural plant products.
2. Reduced energy light bulbs conserve electricity. Most electricity today is generated by fossil fuels. Thus, reducing electrical consumption reduces pollution caused by electrical power generation. Reduced power light bulbs are very common in hardware stores and are relatively easy to find.
3. I love the Ecopod Home Recycling Center and its ability to recycle bottles, cans, paper and plastic bags. What a great idea! The challenge with recycling is the space required for storing the containers and recycled materials. If you live in a loft or smaller space, this can present a challenge. This product is fantastic. The ecopod compacts these products into capturing containers at the bottom of the unit. This product is small enough that it can fit into a pantry or a corner of the kitchen.Product dimensions: 31" tall x 16" wide x 21" deep Weight: Approx. 50 lbs. Price: $328.00

This may be the ultimate combination especially for those who love to read in bed. From Domodinamica comes the Morfeo sofa sleeper with some really great curves and a very fun look. It has been compared to a cartoon character but this creature's antennas are very useful reading lights that can be turned off individually, and adjusted to multiple positions.Morfeo can really compliment a modern decor or finish off a guest room. The sleeper is very comfortable making it as useful as it is cool. The Morfeo comes in several colors and costs around $5500.

Follia Chair by Guiseppe Terragni
Wednesday, 14:06 | posted by John
I really love the Follia chair from Retro-modern. It looks like an end table with stainless steel attached that connects to a backrest. The contrast between black and stainless highlights differences and yet provides fluidity in style. This chair was created for the Casa del Fascio in 1934 by Italian designer Guiseppe Terragni. The Casa del Fascio is an office building in Como, Italy which opened in 1936 for which Terragni was the architect. Guiseppe used some of the same structural and plane concepts in design of the chair as he did in the office building. The chair retails for $1,910 at Retromodern.
