Even though our house was completed over a year ago I have enjoyed continuing to write about construction, design and trying to live a greener life. The experience started as a way for us to track our journey while sharing with others. However, in the process it has become so much more than that.

		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;ve spent a great deal of energy and money over the past few years trying to reduce our over-all carbon footprint. Much of this has come in the form of thoughtful planning and design, environmentally conscious purchases and energy saving design features from SIPs walls to in floor radiant heat. After just over a year [...]]]></description>

With that said, what I love about technology is how in can simplify something that before was so much more complicated. This is particularly true for me when [...]]]></description>

I know that&#8217;s not the politically correct thing to say, especially for a design driven person, but it&#8217;s the honest truth. Many of my younger, creative co-workers, and several of my close friends, are shocked when I tell them how much I like TV. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In our old house we had a fairly nice sized master bedroom, especially when considering the period and style of our home. However, it was oddly shaped making the location and positioning of our King-sized bed very limited, and as a result we had no side tables in our bedroom. Not having side tables meant [...]]]></description>
