And no artsy gas log show fireplace is going to save you either. I am in favor of energy efficiency, but not to the point of insanity. No one wants to live in a house that looks like a "biosphere" on Mars, and honestly, I think these green home designs are some of the coldest, ugliest home designs I've ever seen. Architects! please come up with a decent design, these homes look like the 70's homes minus the avocado appliances. Some of these design trend generalizations are bogus since they are more location specific. For instance, carpeting will never go out in cold miswest. Although tiled family room floors might be wonderfully cool in Palm Springs, it won't work in Chicago, unless of course you use more energy to heat it from beneath, and maybe a large "area rug" over it so people can strech on the floor. Although some people opt for hardwood for value or allergy purposes, carpeting is not going out. I wonder if oil becomes $10 a barrel again and when the economy recovers, or republicans are back in office, all of this downsizing and talk of efficiency continues Wait till your furnace dies in the middle of a Chicago blizzard, then you’ll see what a life saver a wood burning fireplace is.
