Environmental Design Discussion at Center for Green Urbanism Grand Opening

During the Center’s Grand Opening on October 15, Certified Interior Environment Coach Sherry Burton-Ways, Design Principal of DSI, will host discussions about the eco-interior design choices used in the center and cost-effective ways to incorporate these elements into homes and offices.

The Center for Green Urbanism feels like nature; the ambiance is tranquil. Eco-interior design choices such as energy-efficient ceiling fans; eco-friendly upholstery fabrics: low VOC wall coverings; reclaimed teak furniture; low-odor, environmentally-friendly paint; and solar shade window treatments make it an ideal space for small businesses, meetings, events and art showcases. When selecting the elements for design, Burton-Ways was sure to incorporate material that would leave a minimal carbon footprint.

Learn more at the Grand Opening for The Center for Green Urbanism to be held at 3938 Benning Road, NE, Washington, DC.
