Episode description as stored
Send us Fan Mail Your home can look beautiful and still be part of the problem, unless you know what it’s made of. We’re joined by Whitney Walker, designer, entrepreneur, and author, for a candid look at sustainable interior design that goes way past “eco chic” and straight into the real-world details: VOCs, off-gassing finishes, toxic dyes, and why indoor air quality should shape every design decision we make.  We talk about what Whitney learned by building products at scale, from historic hardware and water-based finishes to sourcing certified organic linens. She explains why greenwashing is everywhere, why polyester and other synthetic textiles quietly create long-term waste through microplastics, and how heirloom furniture, reupholstery, and repairable pieces can bring back both craftsmanship and meaning. If you care about wellness at home, this conversation offers a practical framework for choosing materials that support healthier living.  Then we shift to the future of housing with GlassBoxes, Whitney’s modular prefabricated homes built in a controlled factory environment to reduce waste and improve quality control. We dig into site-built code compliance, permitting realities, Miami-Dade hurricane-rated energy-efficient glass, mini-split HVAC, and what customization looks like when a home arrives in sections and sets fast on site.  If this sparked ideas, subscribe, share this with a design friend, and leave a review so more people can find the show.
