The last couple of sections have been detail-heavy and chunkier episodes, especially as I’ve talked about the building envelope, because it’s where a lot of the technical decisions in your home happen.

Section 6 takes us back to our shorter, punchier episodes.

In each, I’ll be covering one specific criteria for choosing materials and products for both the interior and exterior of your future home.

This will give you a roadmap for thinking about your sustainable choices when making material, product, fixture and finish selections for your renovation or new build.
