E3 - Energy and Efficiency with Emily is all about building science, architecture, and female entrepreneurship. On today's podcast I had the pleasure of talking with Megan Thompson! I truely appreciate what Megan is trying to do in the world of selections. It can be incredibly hard to figure out what is a better choice when picking finishes and fixtures for the inside of our homes. As we make tighter homes that really improve the efficiency and quality of our structures, it becomes even more important to understand what we are keeping inside with our occupants. As much as we support mechanical ventilation and think it's incredibly important, we can't ventilate all the poor choices from material sections. So what we pick becomes even more important and Megan is doing the work to help make that easier for clients and professionals alike. ~ Enjoy, Emily
Show Notes:
Megan Thompson
Like many interior designers, Megan Thompson owns her design firm. She has a bachelor's degree in sustainable interior design from Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design. Despite all the knowledge she gained in her education, she found implementing sustainability into her work frustrating. No single platform exists where all the information is easily accessible and saves you time on your projects.
She decided to take matters into her own hands and created Interior Design greenList to make sustainable design easy to understand and implement, regardless of a designer’s background or experience.
At Interior Design greenList, Megan teaches designers about sustainability so they can navigate the industry, be ready for new baselines in industry standards, speak to industry partners with confidence, and become the go-to designer for sustainability in their area.
