Design for Health:
- Only extremely low-VOC (volatile organic compound- containing)
adhesives and coatings were specified with no-toxin, plant-based
paints for the interior
- No toxic preservatives, chemicals, construction vehicles
leaking fluids, or toxic cleaning supplies were allowed on the
site. No products prone to outgassing are used in the interior.
- EMF's: The circuit design and night shutoff feature at all
sleeping areas (switchable by occupants) reduces human exposure
to electromagnetic fields
- Floor coverings are easily cleaned. Only some natural mats
specified, with wool carpet only at stairs to reduce noise.
