How to Pare Down Your Stuff

We launched Re-Nest back in July of 2006 because we knew that our coverage of green home living and design wasn't getting enough attention on Apartment Therapy proper. Since then Re-Nest has grown quickly, attracting over 300,000 readers a month who relate to design, but are especially conscious of living within the Earth's means.

This is a subject that is no longer the fad of the moment, but is always very important to us. As we head into a new season, we're going to be launching a dedicated green design email in September, and this is a taste of what you will see. Enjoy!
