Kohler “Steward” waterless urinal. It seems like a good idea, I think…? Anybody ever seen one of these installed in a house? Heh.
What’s in a name?

We passed this development when passing through Oregon a couple weeks ago. I’m in love with it! The design and the solar panels scream “sustainable building” when you drive past and it made me smile. What a view of the river they have, too…gorgeous! Maybe sometime we can stop and get a tour…I can’t afford to live in them, since the town houses are around $400K, but I’m sure it would be neat to learn things and see the see the “solar system” in action.
Just another cool store I want to keep track of…

Useful article from This Old House. Another on bamboo.
Excellent variety at ecotimber.com. My “local” retailer is ecohaus seattle (aka Environmental Home Center).

This past year my folks installed cork flooring in their bedroom and upstairs hallway. It looks great, feels easy on the feet, and is easy to care for. I have been considering putting it in my studio. Due to my allergies/asthma I prefer to have hard flooring throughout the house; I also prefer the way hard floors look vs. carpet.
