The Ideal Living Home will feature the latest in sustainable and energy efficient home building technologies.

The show home is being constructed by Linger Longer Homes, a builder focused on sustainable residential homes. Johnna Barrett of SUSTAINhouse has designed the healthy and eco-friendly interior of the home and has handpicked each product being showcased. Project management for the home is lead by SUSTAINhouse, a project management company with a strong emphasis on sustainable home creation.

The sustainable products and their brands used in the home’s design were chosen based on their strict adherence to environmental preservation and their dedication to energy savings. The Ideal Home at Achasta represents the future of responsible sustainable construction and design. These included products were chosen because of their similar belief and passion for green living.

Some of the products used in the home’s construction include trusses from UFP Mid Atlanta, LLC®, insulation from Icynene®, and a radiant barrier from LP Building Products®. The HVAC system for the home comes from Lennox and all decking materials come from Trex Decking®. All of these products are designed to make the home more energy efficient.

The home’s interior design will include door hardware from Kwikset®, bath and kitchen fixtures from Kohler®, tile from Orchid Ceramics, and cabinetry from Schrock Cabinetry™. All kitchen appliances are KitchenAid® products and kitchen countertops come from ECO BY Cosentino. The master bedroom of the home will feature organic bedding from Eco-EMPORIUM. Mythic Paint, a totally non-toxic product, will be used in the home. Furniture and hardwood flooring comes from Southern Heritage Woodworks.

Financing for the 2010 Ideal Living Home at Achasta provided by UCB Gainesville® and all website and marketing materials were designed by Idea Associates, Inc.
