Natural Building Materials in Tucson

November 3, 2008 | By Kelley Koehler | Filed Under Repair Renovate Maintain

Found this weekend: Originate Natural Building Materials, a local showroom that specializes in environmentally friendly interior finishes that are non-toxic and made from renewable resources. They’ve got flooring, countertop materials, paints and plaster pigments, and some interesting decorative and salvaged items – all kinds of cool and interesting stuff over there.

They’ve also got a library of resources for natural building materials and sustainable building. You can check them out at 526 N 9th Avenue, Tuesday – Friday 12-6, and Saturdays 12-4.
