Behind the Scenes: Adrian Grenier's Green Digs
From Re-nest: Our site that covers abundant design for green homes

12-11-2008nyslink5.jpgTake a peek at Adrian Grenier's Alter Eco headquarters. The place is LEED Platinum Certified and now, thanks to the help of Domino contributing editor Nathan Turner, it's decked out with all sorts of green furnishings and materials.

Also: We've got instructions for DIY paper snowflakes and paper ornaments, tips on a greener way to send home leftovers, and our official holiday gift black list (the things we won't be giving this season). All the links are after the jump.

We think it doesn't matter what his name is.
Will it matter in the morning?
