Show on Healthful, Eco-Friendly Design and Living Goes National via American Public Television


MILWAUKEE, WI -- (MARKET WIRE) -- May 10, 2007 -- A comprehensive one-hour show on healthful, eco-friendly building and home renovation options will be airing on Public Television stations across the country this month, distributed by American Public Television.

Timing is good for the national presentation of the show, "Healthy Style," as the environmentally sustainable building trend continues to grow dramatically, says Lyn Falk, the show's creator and executive producer and owner of Solterra Studios in Thiensville, Wis.

"'Healthy Style' relates the benefits of living and working in healthful, eco-friendly buildings, and provides credible resources for green products and services," Falk said. "We want to show that designing for one's health and the health of the environment can be beautiful and practical."

Featuring personalities, projects and products from across the country, "Healthy Style" offers easy and affordable tips for everyone, according to Falk. The show looks at energy efficient buildings, recycled and natural building materials, hybrid cars, running a successful green bed & breakfast, and creating a healthful bedroom.

The show, which premiered on Milwaukee Public Television, inspired Tiffany Larson of West Bend, Wis. "I hope to implement some of your simple, environmental/green-friendly options in our home," she said. "Thank you for addressing such important issues in an easy-to-follow manner."

Additional episodes of "Healthy Style" are in the works. A companion web site, www.HealthyStyleShow.tv, offers additional information about each segment of the show, provides helpful eco-friendly design tips, lists the markets that will be airing the educational program, and offers DVDs of the show for sale.
