Workshops

Similar to an old-fashioned barn raising, workshops are a way to bring like-minded people together to accomplish a lot of work in the space of a few days. In the process, people develop skills and connections that extend beyond the workshop. We work with homeowners to coordinate all aspects of the workshops. Please contact us if you would like us to consider a workshop on your site. For more information about workshops or to see our current workshop schedule, click here.

Resources

• Imagine a building as elegant and efficient as a flower. The Living Building Challenge has been developed by Cascadia USGBC as a way to measure true sustainability in the built environment. It is an exciting document, and inspires us to reach further toward Restorative Design. Please read it through, and if it inspires you as well, we would love to talk about how to make your project a Living Building.

• We find many people have questions about using Straw Bales in the Northwest.  Our Straw Bale Frequently Asked Questions can help answer them.
   

•  We have a helpful GLOSSARY for many terms used in the sustainable design and construction process.

Links

• Our links refer to companies and people we have relationships with, or that we believe are a good resource.  As we cannot take responsibility for their accuracy, we ask that you observe due diligence when selecting any of them as a resource. 
  
  If you know of links that should be added to this site, please contact us.
