Recognizing the lack of accessible options for environmentally responsible construction in the single & multifamily residential and light commercial/corporate markets, the GBC’s own Lia Nielsen and Jason Kliwinski have partnered with Ryan Henninger, who has 35 years of practical building experience, to found EnterGreen Solutions, a sustainable construction management and general construction company. Building onto the Green Building Center’s well established network of sustainable interior design & material supply through Simply Sustainable and sustainable architecture & engineering with Designs for Life, the launch of EnterGreen Solutions makes it possible to put every facet of your next project into the hands of environmentally responsible professionals you can trust. EnterGreen Solutions' mission is to make green construction not just a choice but an accessible reality. We pride ourselves on achieving unparalleled levels of sustainability—on time and within your budget. So visit entergreensolutions.com to build your sustainable future with us!

The Green Building Center and Simply Sustainable are proud to be women-owned businesses, and this month we gave a talk at one of the longest-running women's clubs in New Jersey. The Kalmia Club, established in 1892, aims to enhance personal growth and friendship through social, educational, cultural and civic programs. They invite various speakers to provide members with these personal growth opportunities, and this month Lia Nielsen and Mary Jane Augustine, Principle and Co-Principle of Simply Sustainable, were invited to speak at this event to a group of 40 Kalmia Club members. With a wealth of experience in fields such as Interior Design and Construction Law, they speak at educational events like these often to share their experiences and expertise.

At our Architecture firm Designs for Life, our philosophy has always been that every project is unique, and should reflect the character and taste of its owner while being as healthy and environmentally responsible as possible. But why tell you that when we can show you? Linked to these images is a full presentation on our recently completed Asbury Park residence, a 900sf net zero electric energy home that is walking distance to beach and downtown Asbury. Built with healthy and environmentally responsible methods, materials and finishes, this home encapsulates our philosophy perfectly, and by visiting our presentation you can see its full sustainable development, from concept to keys!
