Home | Bright Green Talent Sustainable Design - Buildipedia.com™ Upgrade your home’s insulation and air-seal gaps and cracks sooner rather than later. This is one home improvement that will pay for itself relatively quickly and then continue to generate savings for as long as you live in your home. Even if a full upgrade is not in your budget this year, you can tackle several low- or no-cost improvements right now. 1. If you have a sunroom or enclosed porch with a southern exposure, it can collect a great deal of heat. 2. In winter, a surprising amount of cold air can leak into your house around window and door openings, due largely to the fact that the framed (or rough) opening of a window or door is bigger than actual size of the window or door. 3. Baseboard and crown moldings that run along exterior walls are also sources of cold air infiltration. 4. Vent fans, recessed lights, and electric receptacles and switches on exterior walls can be significant sources of uncomfortable drafts and energy loss. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.

The Story of Stuff NZ Outdoor Instructors Association - Home Timebank LINEA: Katie Holten and Mariateresa Sartori Curated by Kathy Battista April 27 – May 31, 2014 Opening Reception: Sunday, April 27, 6-9 pm Public walk with the artists: Thursday, May 1, 4pm BOSI Contemporary is pleased to announce Linea, an exhibition of new work by Katie Holten and Mariateresa Sartori curated by Kathy Battista. The two artists were chosen for their investigations into drawing as an expanded field. Katie Holten’s Constellations are a series of new white-on-black drawings that resemble aggregations of stars. Mariateresa Sartori’s double channel video The Drawers shows her students drawing, their eyes looking at the camera, darting to the pages below, and back again. Sartori and Holten find beauty in their investigations of systemic composition and line. The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully illustrated catalogue with texts by Kathy Battista, Samuel Bordreuil, and a conversation between Katie Holten and Sarah Sze. Kathy Battista is a writer, curator, and educator.
