February 11– May 4, 2008
How would you like to live in a “green” house”? This highly interactive exhibit, which was created by the National Building Museum in Washington, D.C introduces visitors to the concept of “green” or sustainable architecture and design for all types of buildings and demonstrates the emerging collaboration between tasteful architecture, interior design, and environmental responsibility.
Sustainable design is one response to the rapid growth of economic activity and human population, the depletion of natural resources and the potential damage to our ecosystems. Every household can incorporate some of the features that are included in this exhibition that support the conservation of the environment and improve our quality of life. As environmental concerns continue to mount worldwide, integrating more sustainable practices and products into our lives becomes increasingly important. There is growing popular interest in “green” living, and the possibilities for achieving it in our homes are rapidly expanding.
