The Skyline Residence, which was designed by Belzberg Architects, was designed to be sustainable as well as economic. While definitely larger than life at 5,800 square feet, the house is indisputably gorgeous. Check out the slideshow for a look at the home, both inside and out.

Welcome to Home Made, a new feature showcasing homes that readers have had a hand in planning, renovating, or building. Maybe you helped decide the layout for your house? Perhaps you approved the renovation plans that your designer presented? 
The Nobel Peace Prize was awarded today to Al Gore, the former U.S. vice president, and to the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change for their work in educating the world about the dangers of climate change. I'm so proud of Al and the U.N. 
I wanted to give a heads-up to any Casa readers in Los Angeles about a series of events coming up in the next three weekends. These events, which will showcase the newest in green building, will take place at project7ten in Venice.
A joint project between builder Tom Schey and environmentalist Kelly Meyer, the recently completed LEED Platinum-certified project7ten is one of the most environmentally friendly homes in California. 
Until 11:59 tomorrow morning, this awesome Green As Can Be Gift Set is on sale. I love that it includes everything you need to run your errands in an eco-friendly fashion: Five Envirosax reusable grocery bags, two reusable produce bags, an extra large SIGG water bottle, and a bottle cat. I know that I'd love to have the reusable produce bags, because as much as I can avoid the big bags at the checkout, I often cram produce in the smaller plastic bags when I shop. 
We've already done a a lot of giveaways here at CasaSugar, and there are plenty more to come. But I'm also inspired to write about HGTV's 2008 Green Home Giveaway. That's right: HGTV is giving away a green home.
