Moving Day Is Coming Too Soon

Making sound green decisions are usually a challenge, but even more so on moving day.  We are scheduled to close on Thursday and there’s a honey-do list of projects that need to be tackled before we’re able to feel safe and comfortable in our new space.

Google has an insanely cool 3D design program called SketchUp that has kept me from my usual 2 or 3 days wandering around the house dreaming up the best way to place furniture and art.  Those days saved planning the space, should be enough to put up new energy efficient windows in the front, and to get started on weatherizing the studio, and the attic space.

SketchUp is a free download, you can find it here.

You can also find a design community using Sketch Up for green projects at SketchUp - Go Green.

  1. We started this blog with the intention of showcasing our efforts to go and stay green in the updates to our Culver City home... 5-years later I have a new post. Doesn't mean we haven't been busy, but we haven't been busy updating this blog (:()
