Green Buildings

Natural Building

A home should reflect the values of its inhabitants. If you prioritize environmental stewardship, you may want to investigate the health, sustainability, and aesthetic benefits of natural building.

Envinity is committed to using local, natural materials whenever possible. We recognize that black locust is a healthier, more sustainable solution than pressure treated wood. We also try to use natural wood finishes, low-VOC finishes, formaldehyde-free plywood for cabinetry, natural wall finishes, and other materials that are recognized as healthy alternatives to typical construction materials. We tend to like wood, as it is a renewable resource, and we like to let it show its character, including minor “defects” such as sapwood, knots, interesting grain patterns, etc.

What are your natural building goals? Do you have a one-of-a-kind project in mind? Envinity will work with you to help you realize your goals for a house or building. Whether you are considering straw bale building, a timber frame house, a deck for a yurt, or another green building project, Envinity can manage your project from design through construction.
