Sustainability
There is an abundance of low-hanging fruit when it comes to integrating sustainability into our built environment. Many are thrifty measures, as well as sensible ones. For instance, buying local. If you acquire your materials from nearby places, you save money on gas, delivery fees - and you decrease the amount of carbon that goes into the atmosphere. You also support your local economy, and that benefits you. This is only one example. A few other efforts we are making at DollHouse include:
-
Paperless Operations
-
Sustainable Sourcing - This encompasses the purchase of sustainable and organic materials wherever possible, such as Oeko-Tex fabrics, low VOC paints, products derived from sustainable forestry.
-
Rental Furniture - When staging a home, this is an inherently green choice, since it does not require the manufacture of new goods.
In the Works...
-
Supplier Sustainability Scorecards - Scorecards are a well-regarded method of creating an aligned supply chain. These will help ensure that the trades under our direction understand and buy in to our commitment to create a functional set of standards and guidelines surrounding our sustainability initiatives.
