New Frameworks: Building Earth-Friendly Homes While Shaping a Better Future

New Frameworks: Building Earth-Friendly Homes While Shaping a Better Future

Last Modified May 24, 2017 By Staff Writer

People are starting to care more about the environment and are trying to make their lifestyle fit in with this. You can see this in the homes people are building. They’re being built in a much more earth friendly way. This is good for the earth but also saves money and resources in the long run.

Key Takeaways:

  • Based in Vermont, New Frameworks places an emphasis on using locally sourced, low-impact materials in their projects.
  • New Frameworks often uses straw as an insulation material in the walls, employs primarily natural paints and plasters, and opts for sand from local quarries.
  • But New Frameworks believes that building a home doesn’t have to make a negative impact, and can, in fact, contribute positively to the environment, society, and the local community.
