The American Society of Interior Designers’ Foundation and the U.S. Green Building Council have partnered on the development of best practice guidelines and targeted educational resources for sustainable residential improvement projects. This program will increase understanding of sustainable renovation project practices and benefits among homeowners, residents, design professionals, product suppliers and service providers to build both demand and industry capacity.

Envision your green remodeling project by seeing what other people have done. REGREEN includes 10 case studies covering different project types and highlighting the strategies that made these projects successful. The case studies show examples of green design in practice, but because they were done before REGREEN was created, they do not necessarily represent the best-practices recommendations of this guide.

An important part of the green remodeling process is the careful selection of healthy, environmentally responsible materials and products. While REGREEN does not endorse any specific products or brands, let this checklist guide your shopping decisions.
REGREEN was created by a consensus-driven process. After a team of ASID and USGBC members and invited experts developed the draft guidelines, REGREEN underwent a public comment period. Download a summary of those comments.
