The Many Shades of Green Remodeling
Transitional Bathroom, Minneapolis
The homeowners requested a green, transitional style remodel of their lower level ¾ bathroom. The vanity features poplar hardwood that was sourced in the US – Midwest and Kentucky and is FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) Certified and the MDF (medium-density fiberboard) used for the drawer fronts and cabinet doors was NAUF (No Added Urea Formaldehyde) Certified. The custom, full-overlay European style cabinetry with Shaker style doors were painted white and finished with a charcoal color, hand-applied glaze. The vanity was painted with zero VOC paint. The eco-friendly flooring and shower walls are made of an innovative concrete overlay product called Granicrete and was installed by Tom Eaton, who owns Granicrete, MN along with his wife Jean.
