InnovativeHOME Magazine – my new must read magazine

I was checking out at the grocery store last week and spied the preview issue of this very slick magazine focused on sustainable home design. I’m pouring over every article and never get bored.

According to the publisher, InnovativeHOME is designed for architects and interior designers but as a consumer, I found it chocked full of inspiring ideas for greener living.

The section on modular housing was interesting and opened new possibilities for building a new home or even renovating without breaking the bank, and a marriage. Perhaps there’s hope for our new addition, if we build it modular. I like the idea of our new master bedroom coming completely assembled and installed in weeks rather than years.

Subscription is pricey at $37.50 for just four issues and that’s with the discount but it looks to be a real addition to the library rather than another magazine to take up space in the landfill.

I just found this blog and am impressed with all the great information here! Question: I'm having a hard time finding cool looking, organic fabric window shades. I loved some shades I found by a company called DeliaShades but they are not pvc-free, and probably produce off-gassing. I don't really want just organic cotton or hemp shades - was hoping for something more eclecctic in style.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Michaela

hi-- love your bedroom ideas and championing of alpaca!

do you read dwell? it's just as green friendly, but more down to earth-- i.e. for architects, designers, but also consumers.

Hi Cloe,

Yes, I discovered Dwell and love it. You've prompted me to get the latest copy and review. I was especially impressed by the green architecture used even in big cities. Thanks for the reminder!
