Let’s go to your bedroom together. Close your eyes and imagine breathing for all your sleep filled hours. Is the air that you are taking in each night healthy or harmful? Where you sleep is key to the remediation of your home through healthy design choices. Clean air taken in during sleep promotes rejuvenation and creates better health. Choosing to live in a clean air environment is a wise choice.

Healthy and sustainable bedroom flooring options include natural stone and ceramic tile. Hard surface flooring in bedrooms reduces dust and bacteria build-up. Other healthy bedroom floor choices include forestry certified hardwood and bamboo floors with an ‘eco’ finish.

‘Marmoleum’ is a sustainable, resilient alternative made from ground cork, mineral pigments and natural linseed oil. For people who like the warmth of carpet, wool, sisal or woven seagrass are healthy choices. Carpet in bedrooms should be combined with filtered ventilation and regular cleaning.
