Question by Paul: Which is greener; Building a home or Buying a home?
So I’m becoming more interested in being self sufficient and environmentally friendly. I would like to build a dream home out of straw bales and mud on a farm in the country with solar panels and a recycling water system. Then I started wondering if buying an existing house then using recycled building materials for refurbishing so the house can be more environmentally friendly. So, which is better at achieving my goal, building or buying?

Green Living Room Walls What color matches with "rust" in our living room?

Question by Skye: What color matches with “rust” in our living room?
We are moving into a new apartment in September, and have all new furniture. The furniture is wood, with a reddish stain (looks almost like a violin color), and it all matches. We also have a futon frame and futon, but no cover.

What color should we use in our living room? The walls are white, and we don’t want to do green because it will look christmassy, but we need something not rust-colored for the futon cover. Maybe a dark brown? What do you all think?
