Make Your House Cozy!

Sarah Susanka, author of The Not So Big House is with us today.

During architecture practice she noticed the money and quality issues of building new houses were overwhelming.
Susanka found that her definition of home comes from the character of the space rather than the size.

When designing a home do you look for sustainable materials?

Absolutely. Luckily conferences like West Coast Green are inspiring and providing sources for fabulous educational opportunities.
Sarah will be speaking at West Coast Green this September 25-27Th.

It's incredible how we assume walls are there for good. Susanka says we should not be daunted by a wall.

Tear it down! Make your house cozy! Take a look at the rooms where you spend the least time in, and change what is keeping you from being comfortable in that room.

Be sure to check out Sarah Susanka at West Coast Green later this month.

Thanks for listening today!
