At Georgetown Development, we like to look at each room as a blank slate with endless possibilities.  Colors, textures and layout are usually only limited by one’s imagination and we’re constantly dreaming of new ways to incorporate the newest in eco-home design with any luxury home so when we came across the new textured tile from EcoDomo, we wanted to share.

EcoDomo’s new Rainforest leather tiles contain 60% pre-consumer recycled content made from recycled leather luxury car seat straps and can be re-used without glue. Yes, we said car seats! They are available in 12 different colors and three textures and add a level of depth to any surface.

Georgetown Development is committed in providing our clients with the latest in green building and use sustainable products whenever and wherever we can.

Typically trade shows are a mad house. Everyone is rushing from booth to booth to see what’s new, what’s on trend, what the next big thing is. This year’s American Institute of Architects (AIA) convention last month in Miami wasn’t really any different. While the number of attendees might have been smaller, the abundance of new products made up for it.

From sleek solar panels to decorative windows made from bamboo, this annual green conference displayed products for everyone. Click here to view some of the highlights.

Georgetown Development has worked on increasingly green homes throughout the Washington, DC metro area and would love to help you with your next green project. From one room renovations to custom home designs, Georgetown Development has been helping homeowners create their dream spaces for over ten years.

Every think of adding some color to your kitchen? How about a home that incorporates your kitchen as part of your home rather than a room that you disappear into and then emerge with tasty treats?

If you’ve ever had these thoughts, then you aren’t alone. In fact, you’re on trend with many of the designs that emerged out of the 2010 Kitchen and Bath Industry Show in Chicago back in April. Over the last month, Georgetown Development has written about some of the cool new gadgets that emerged out of the show and today we’d like to show you 10 of the top trends in kitchens and baths.

From kitchen beverage stations to artistic bathroom fixtures, click here to take a look at some of the newer ideas in kitchen and bath design.

Georgetown Development can help you with your kitchen and bath re-design or your new custom home. To learn more about what Georgetown Development can do for you, take a look at our portfolio at www.georgetowndevcorp.com

At Georgetown Development, we are all for innovation. We seek out products that are new and change the way people look at everyday custom and luxury home design. When we first heard about Novabrik, we were immediately intrigued. Mortarless brick? How does this work? Well, we soon found out! Novabrik, developed in Canada (we’re willing to trade the gold in hockey for the latest in brick technology) presents homeowners with a façade that never needs painting, prevents mold and doesn’t warp, dent or fade.

More than traditional brick, Novabrik can withstand the effects of severe weather, high winds and fire. Its special “rain-screen” design prevents water from penetrating the wall from the outside and the mortarless construction helps prevent any molding that could occur over time. We think that any homeowner, whether it’s a renovation project or a new custom home design will appreciate the ease and speed with which Novabrik installs as well as the look of timeless brick – for less than the cost of traditional brick. It can be installed year-round, which is great for the Mid-Atlantic region, from the freezing temperatures we had in Washington DC this winter to the sweltering summer days that are upon us. We think that product works great for either new or remodeled homes.
