Inspiration to create a healthy, natural, green and chic living space.

Creating a planet-friendly home is simpler than ever before with a new Green Guide that inspires readers to create and enjoy a natural, green and chic living space.

Author Jen Marsden takes the reader through a step-by-step approach to creating a healthy, natural and eco-friendly living space, with a tour around the home, leaving no wall, appliance or floor untouched.

With a light-hearted, practical and straightforward approach she asks and answers key questions such as: What are the greenest building materials? Is it necessary to install a wind turbine or solar panel to be energy efficient? What are the really eco-friendly ways to decorate? Where do you find the most natural furnishings? What are the best natural cleaning products – and what really works?

Jargon is explained and the book abounds with green tips and insight. Builders, architects, designers and consultants offer their expert advice in the form of case studies.

Each chapter includes an accessible and down-to-earth explanation of the social, ethical and environmental considerations for your home, offering a range of options and solutions. There is also a comprehensive directory of over 1,500 entries that covers architecture, building, decor, cleaning, appliances, recycling and energy efficiency, providing a blueprint for a truly green abode.
