healthy home… healing space

Building healthy homes reduces environmental impact and at the same time improves the health of Canadians. We create nourishing, healing spaces without sacrificing style.

An environmentally intelligent, functional home creates distinctive harmony. We align non-toxic materials and leading-edge products in a coordinated, holistic approach together to form a place that refreshes, rejuvenates and heals.

Koronko completes BUILT GREEN® and LEED certified homes in Southern Alberta, Banff, Canmore, the BC interior and BC Coast.  Our partners provide us with expert support in the areas of environmentally friendly design and construction.

 

Low EMF construction

EMF exposure has become an important concern for many people.  Our partners provide in-depth knowledge of electrical systems and guidance in the design and construction of our buildings.

Appropriate placing of electrical equipment, and the factoring in for alternatives to Wi-Fi and other smart home technologies during the design phase is a critical step we take to minimize exposure to electromagnetic fields to children, families, and other residents.

Non-toxic materials

It is important to use materials that are not harmful to your health.  Paints and floor coverings must be selected carefully so that they will not release toxic ‘off-gasses’ or residues into your living space.  We focus on using natural non-toxic materials.

There are many healthier alternatives to conventional construction materials to choose from in building your home. Unbleached & recycled drywall, wool, soy or denim insulation, zero voc lacquers, paints, glues, adhesives, floor treatments and more.  You decide what best suits your lifestyle and price budget.

Alternative Energy

Koronko can also offer other forms of alternative energy applications. Solar, wind and geothermal systems are all available to provide heating for indoor air and water, as well provide household electricity.
