Habitable Spaces

Share

Habitable Spaces is a residency where artist will be given the opportunity to design and construct their own shelter on site – with very few rules curtailing the outcome! Each resident will work a minimum of 4 hours per day, three days a week on our farm. During our upcoming first residency period we aim to admit 6 artists, increasing to 12 in subsequent years. Habitable Spaces is expected to be open to the public in the fall of 2012.

Treehugger Paint Co.

Share

TreeHugger Paint Co. is the only company of its kind in Austin, Texas. We go beyond claiming to be green. We intentionally look further than the low VOC paints offered by mainstream paint companies. Those products still contain uncomfortably high levels of chemicals that are toxic to our planet and our families. We build our business on no VOC products and natural paints instead. Just as important is our level of craftsmanship. We hold ourselves to the highest standards of quality. With more than 30 years of experience in painting, we know what quality looks like.
