Celebrating 50 Years of Earth Day!

Did you know that April 22nd marks the 50th Anniversary of Earth Day?  As we adapt to the restrictions of social distancing, one thing we can celebrate is our shrinking carbon footprint. During this newfound journey, we are here to serve our clients today and tomorrow building energy-efficient homes designed to soak in natural light and ventilation. Modular construction maximizes the use of building materials and utilizes waste to energy practices which means far less waste in landfills.  A tighter building envelope combined with the insulation package we include in each home means greater energy efficiency and savings for the homeowner.

Add Some Color To Your Room With A Simple DIY Project

Paint an oversized mirror a bright color to spice up your room.



 


Learn to decorate Your home with very little money. Remember,  things do not have to be expensive to be beautiful!
For example, You can score a beautiful antique vanity mirror at Goodwill for usually under $10

Keep the following color principles in mind as you evaluate your DIY project:

Bright colors are generally the easiest to see because of their ability to reflect light.
Solid, bright colors, such as red, orange, and yellow are usually more visible than pastels.
Lighting can influence the perception of color: Dim light can "wash out" some colors, while bright light can intensify others.

Place dark objects against lighter backgrounds, or vice versa. For example, a pale green object could "disappear" against a yellow wall; instead, try painting the object with a solid, bright color to create contrast and make it "stand out."
