Green Log Awards Inc.

The GREEN LOG Home & Lifestyle Awards™ were created in response to the growing demand for green products, solutions, and services. The goal of the awards program is to locate and shine a spotlight on those companies and individuals who are enabling healthier homes and lifestyles.

The GREEN LOG Home & Lifestyle Awards™ were founded by the non-profit organization, Green Log Awards, Inc., in cooperation with the Environment News Service (ENS).

Green Log Awards, Inc. was founded and created by PrecisionCraft Log Homes and Mountain Architects, two names that stand for innovation and excellence in environmentally sound home building and green living.

With a focus on green design, Mountain Architects is a perfect fit for the GREEN LOG Home & Lifestyle Awards™ program. As the leading design company in the log home & timber home industry, Mountain Architects also sets the pace in green design incorporating green design elements into every design. Many of Mountain Architects clients look to simply incorporate energy saving features into the design of their log homes or timber homes, while other clients look to achieve LEED® certification. Whatever their “shade of green”, the team at Mountain Architects help clients meet their green building goals.

What role might a log home company place in the GREEN LOG Home & Lifestyle Awards™? The interest and active participation in such a program is a logical one for PrecisionCraft. Log homes represent the original green building material and have one of the lowest carbon footprints of any other building material. In addition, the log home industry is actively promoting the green building movement. According to Jim Young, President of PrecisionCraft, “the Log Homes Council and the National Association of Home Builders are very concerned with green building. NAHB has recently published green building guidelines which apply to log homes and other construction options. In addition, the NAHB is providing a seminar to train members of the Log Homes Council at the up coming President’s Tour.”

Clients who have the goal of having a “green” home turn to PrecisionCraft and the team at Mountain Architects for information on companies that provide green products and services. It is their goal to provide clients with the best green solutions available. The creation of Green Log Awards, Inc. is a great way to raise awareness about the green movement as well as identify & highlight those companies or organizations that provide the best green solutions and information, not just for the log & timber home industry but for the building industry as a whole.
