Sarasota, Florida architect Michael Carlson, AIA, LEED AP of Carlson Studio Architecture will present at the upcoming Selby Associates meeting. Carlson, whose firm designed the HGTV Green Home 2009, will offer behind-the-scenes insights into his involvement with the project. He will present at the October 19, 2009, meeting of the Marie Selby Gardens Associates. Gardens visitors are welcome to attend the meeting, which takes place in the Great Room by the Bay at 11:30 a.m., for a $5.00 fee.
 
Located in Port St. Lucie, Florida, the fully furnished, 2,400 square-foot LEED Platinum-certified home is only one of four LEED Platinum Homes in all of Florida. From the beginning, designers, energy experts, and construction specialists worked together to develop a comprehensive approach to the project. The premier of the HGTV broadcast showcasing the home first aired on April 19, 2009.  The show producers were determined to demonstrate that being green doesn’t have to be “extreme.”
