Customer Reviews

A well organized, very revolutionary book!

This book rocks! I recently purchased a home in upstate New York and wanted to do simple renovations to the kitchen, gardens and bathroom. I didn't have a tremendous amount of moolah to spend, but I did want to make changes. I realize this book is all about saving the planet and incorporating green building products....but there are sooooooo many tips in here to decorate, renovate and change on a dime!!! It's very very clever...I love it!

If you really want to change the world...

I have to say that I care about the planet, I want to do my part, but feel there are so many hardcore green people who say, "you either do it all the way or not at all."Well, I disagree. This book is so perfect....while you want to make a difference and help the planet, you don't wanna live in a hut. The photos are really inspirational and I got lots of clever ideas from it. Good job!!

Helped me Create a Conscious Style Home

I bought this book last year when I started the renovation process on my home. I have always wanted to do the right thing in home design, but didn't really know what the "right" thing is.One of the things that I found really useful in this book was that it wasn't about building a home from scratch. It also didn't have weird green building ideas I kept seeing in other books---like straw insulation. I realize that it's very green to use straw bales...but, c'mon, I already have insulation in the walls! What am I supposed to use?There really is a wealth of ideas and resources in the book. Who would've thought moving the fridge a few inches away from the wall could make it so much more energy efficient? I highly recommend this book to all who care about our planet.

Eco Friendly Living has come a long way, baby

When my first child was born, I was concerned about keeping a clean home without using harsh chemicals. I picked up Conscious Style Home to see if there were ideas how I could do that. What's refreshing about this book is that the author doesn't keep lamenting what's wrong with the frickin' world...he just gives ideas. I highly recommend this book.
