CONTACT GREEN BY DESIGN


Allan Berube opened Green by Design in 2007. Since the 1980s he has organized the home offices of writers and researchers and the offices of small non-profits. And he has organized filing and storage systems for private research and archival collections (including periodicals, architectural plans, photographs and personal letters). Since the beginning of 2006, he has co-owned and operated INTELLIGENT DESIGN Antiques in Liberty, NY, which specializes in home furnishings and collectibles from the 1930s - 1960s, and features unusual "finds" that can be repurposed for workspace uses. Since 2002 he has owned and operated Carrier House Bed & Breakfast, also in Liberty, where he designed writing and reading areas for each apartment suite (visit the website to see the suites). He is an award-winning, community-based historian and speaker who has received the prestigious MacArthur Fellowship for two decades of creative work. In the early 1970s he was a pioneer activist in Boston who helped set up innovative recycling programs and other community-based Ecology Action projects.

Allan Berube is a member of the National Association of Professional Organizers, the Sullivan County Chamber of Commerce, and the Sullivan County Visitors Association.

DIGITAL ALTERNATIVES

Whenever possible use digital alternatives to paper. With a digital camera you can view photographs without printing them out, email them as attachments, send them on a cd or post them to a website that requires password entry for privacy. Email messages usually don't have to be printed out to be archived, and can be filed in digital folders and also stored on disks. Newspapers and magazines can be read online, sometimes even without a subscription, saving you from having to recycle those piles that collect all over the house and office. Because appliance manuals are increasingly available on the internet, you may not need to store or file your hard copies of these manuals at all.
