Paul and Lisa’s elegant Manhattan home is proof that going green doesn’t have to come at the expense of style. (It also proves that if you’re going to gut renovate a dilapidated 1885 Manhattan townhouse in a single year, it comes in handy when the owner is also the architect.)
“I thought it was really incredible how invested they were in the environment. It felt like a gift to do the house for them.” -Project Architect Mary Ann Thompson
“Early in the process, we decided that almost every aspect of the renovation was going to be green – from the gut job to the design. We wanted a healthy house made of chemical-free, natural materials that didn’t pillage the earth.” -Lisa Sharkey
