A Sneak Peek at ML’s Green Issue

The secrets of sustainable design are revealed in ML’s Green Issue

The March/April 2010 Green Issue of Mountain Living, on newsstands March 2, is full of stories about people living leaner and greener throughout the high country. Such is the case with the Montana couple who helped design the living room pictured above. The chic space is the heart of their modern, handsomely appointed two-bedroom home located within a historic building in Billings, Montana, which they refashioned into stylish, LEED Platinum-certified apartments.

Deftly combining old with new, interior designer Susie Hoffman complemented the room’s original beams and bead-board walls with drum shade pendants from CB2 and Midcentury Modern orange couches from Room & Board. We love the room’s modern, hip appeal, with its mix of fresh colors and industrial-but-soft textures.
