Located in Port St. Lucie, FL and designed by Carlson Studio Architecture, this 2400-square-foot LEED for Homes Platinum-certified home is expected to attract more than 20 million entries during the 8-week giveaway period. It is only 1 of 4 LEED Platinum Homes in Florida. From the outset, designers, energy experts, and construction specialists all worked together to develop a comprehensive approach to the project. Through charrettes, design coordination meetings, and complete team involvement, innovative ideas were created. The premier of the HGTV broadcast showcasing the home first aired on April 19, 2009. The show producers were determined to demonstrate that being green doesn't have to be "extreme." Join us May 11 as Michael shares more about their experience with the HGTV project. [Carlson Studio Marketing](http://www.carlsonecomarketing.com/) is sponsoring the event. May 11 at the [Green World Café](http://www.sarasotagreenmarketplace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=page.eventsandpress) event in [Sarasota at the Bayfront Community Center](http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&safe=off&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&hs=ENc&ei=qBTvSZOdFIudlQf62bUl&resnum=0&um=1&ie=UTF-8&q=sarasota+Bayfront+Community+Center&fb=1&split=1&gl=us&view=text&latlng=11541338938727728132#) (behind the Municipal Auditorium, entrance on Van Wezel Way). ## CELEBRATING SUSTAINABILITY THROUGH DESIGN Welcome to the Carlson Studio Architecture blog -
