LivingHomes’ modern, sustainable, pre-fab designs have long been an ecofab fav – the winning combo of world-class architects, eco-friendly building materials, and incredible energy-efficiency have earned the company a host of awards and certifications, not to mention a bright gold star in our book. And while the homes have always been a great value for the price, we’re elated to announce that all LivingHomes prefabs designed by legendary architect Ray Kappe, FAIA, are now available in wood-framing for a substantial reduction in cost. This is coupled with the addition of another Ray Kappe LivingHomes design, the RK6, created especially for smaller, urban infill locations. (more…)

We first became aware of REN after catching sight of their simple cylindrical packaging—clean, attractive, and scientific in a way that said “seriously potent,” not “cold and clinical.” Unlike other beauty lines capitalizing on a “natural” or “organic” sub-moniker, this was a line concerned with both style and substance, meaning no questionable herbal scent or unsightly slapped-together label.
