Remodeled Beginning...

When newleyweds remodeled their mid-century ranch, they received a crash course in green design. The palette of grayish-blue, black, and white was selected to maintain a simple yet stylish aesthetic. They wanted eco-friendly products that were elegant and affordable, so they retained the original red-oak floors and had them refinished with a water-based urethane, chose low-voltage halogen lighting, and appliances with a government Energy Star rating.
