Comfort Zone: Creating the Eco-Elegant Interior

'Comfort Zone: Creating the Eco-Elegant Interior' welcomes readers to a fresh 21st century approach to interior design, one that emphasises beautiful rooms, healthful furnishings and building materials, and extraordinary comfort, while thoughtfully considering the world outside our doors. AUTHOR: Trudy Dujardin, ASID, LEED AP +ID + C, presents her work as one of the country's most accomplished interior designers with the signature passion and commitment that made her a pioneer in the sustainable design movement. 'Comfort Zone' offers an intimate view into award-winning interiors in some of the most stunning homes in America.

You'll learn how to choose non-toxic paints and finishes for the "skin" of your home, find out what the most important room really is, discover that traditional upholstered furniture may not be the best seat in the house, and be inspired to create the comfortable, "greener" home you've dreamed of.
