On Using Endangered Products
How nice that the Hederers were able to “warm up” their Brentwood home (“From Bauhaus to Wow Haus,” by Barbara Thornburg, SoCal Style, March 12). Unfortunately, their use of redwood and mahogany to achieve that effect was environmentally irresponsible.
It is time for clients, decorators and architects to stop using endangered wood products, which may indeed warm up homes but also contribute to warming the planet.
