Challenges and Solutions for a Healthy Home, with Andy Pace, Green Design Center USA

Challenges and Solutions for a Healthy Home, with Andy Pace, Green Design Center USA

Hello! This is Episode 334, and in it, I’m talking with Andy Pace from the Green Design Center in Wisconsin, USA.

Andy is joining me to talk about his role as a Healthy Home Concierge and Founder of The Green Design Center, and how he helps and works with homeowners in all locations, to not only supply healthy and sustainable building products and materials, but also provide advice through consultancy, on what’s required to achieve a healthy outcome for both existing and new homes.

[For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/334].

When Andy reached out to connect and chat about coming on the podcast, I thought it was a really great opportunity to compare notes, and discuss the evolution of green and healthy building practices.

We’ve both got over 30 years industry experience, but on opposite sides of the globe.

And so, it was brilliant to have this conversation, and discuss the exciting developments we’ve seen in the industry as the demand for healthy homes has grown.

There’s lots of similar challenges and opportunities for those that we each help, and commonality in the comparative experiences that homeowners are having as they make health-based decisions for their projects. Especially when it comes to mould and chemical sensitivities.

As founder of the oldest healthy building supply company in the United States, Andy has become one of the single most helpful and educational experts dealing with the day-to-day concerns of those individuals who suffer from allergies, asthma and chemical sensitivities.

There’s some fantastic insights shared in this podcast episode that I know will be super helpful for anyone building or renovating with their sights on achieving a healthy home, wherever in the world this information reaches you.
