What You Will Learn
Sustainable Design has gone beyond Solar Roofs and Sustainable water efficient landscape. Sustainable design trends have advanced as more families have prioritized wellness in the home and life due to the global pandemic. Wellness and Sustainability have been embraced as an extension of self-care not only for your home and family but the earth.
The desire to create better and more sustainable spaces using materials and products that are not only earth friendly in both design and construction but help you live a better life and promote a better life beyond your space. Companies whose mission it is to create a better world socially and environmentally are leading with products that educate consumers and inspire designers, builders, and homeowners.
Sustainable design is breaking ground in ways that the average homeowner can embrace, afford, and enjoy. We’re here to share with you the many ways you will start seeing homes change with efforts such as water and energy conservation, business opportunities for home upgrades and Universal Design as Sustainable Design.
During this session, you will:
- Recognize where trends are forecasted to go, how to prepare for these changes and what options and costs may be moving forward.
- Discover why there is a greater importance and discussion about sustainable companies and how they source their raw and finished products.
- Create awareness of opportunities to present sustainable value for projects and achieve sustainable options for your clients.
