Green Home Designs
A key principle of green home designs is to recycle wherever possible. This is relevant when it comes to flooring as you can sand and refinish or even paint and stencil what is already there. This means you will limit the use volatile organic compounds (VOC’s) as part of your building process. Vertrazzo, which is recycled glass, is another example of where recycles materials can be used and is a popular choice for use in the kitchen. Recycled glass looks attractive and can come in a number of colors to suit your decor. You can use it for both kitchen counter tops and as a backsplash. Recycled glass tiles are another attractive alternative frequently turning up in green kitchen designs.
