Good Housekeeping Home Features Shaw Flooring

Dalton, GA,  Sept. 16, 2008--Good Housekeeping in July unveiled The Good Housekeeping Green House, which will be the first LEED-certified single-family home in Harlem and the most environmentally-friendly private residence in New York City.

The home features Shaw Floors including recyclable Anso nylon carpet and recycled Grand Canyon hardwood.

To ensure the interior design was as eco-friendly as the structural modifications, Good Housekeeping partnered with established eco-home lifestyle and design expert Robin Wilson.  As the magazine prepares for the 100th birthday of the Good Housekeeping Seal in 2009, the house is the physical manifestation of Good Housekeeping’s commitment to “green,” according to the publication.    

The Good Housekeeping Green House is a  four-story brownstone on Harlem’s West 122nd Street and it includes low-flow plumbing, skylights with solar panels, denim insulation, tankless hot water heaters, no-VOC paint, recycled hardwood flooring and recyclable carpet.  

The entire first floor and master suite features Shaw’s Grand Canyon hardwood.

The bedrooms, stairway and area rugs within the home utilize Shaw’s Anso nylon recyclable carpet from the Style Solutions collection.
