“Wow. That sounds like a place I would want to live!”  This is a statement often heard by our team when describing what Green Exchange has to offer.  Here’s the good news…Green Exchange is a place you can live and work.  We have created a very unique opportunity for eco-entrepreneurs by incorporating 56 work/live lofts into the floor plan.  Any licensed green business is eligible to take advantage of the myriad benefits inherent in occupying any one of these units, whether it’s a studio apartment or one of the penthouse suites. 

Not only will you now have a zero commute, but your home and business will also be located in one of the country’s greenest buildings created with low-toxin materials, energy efficient windows, clean-air circulation, solar heated hot water and more.  In addition, all of your neighbors will be individuals who share your belief in pursuing an eco-friendly lifestyle. 

When it comes time to conduct your business the benefits continue to climb.  You will have an on-site business center, conference rooms with multi-media capabilities and even an organic café just two floors below.  You can take your clients out to the 8,000 square foot sky garden for a working lunch or have a catered meeting in the conference center.

It was the promise of the work/live lofts that caused the founders of Conscious Living TV to pick up and move their personal and professional lives from California here to the Midwest to take up residence in the Green Exchange.  Michael and Bianca Alexander, creators and hosts of Conscious Living TV, have made a name for themselves within the eco-conscious community as individuals who live, work, eat and dream green.

Conscious Living is a TV show dedicated to exploring and sharing the hottest trends in green travel and design, eco-fashion and natural beauty, organic cuisine, holistic healing and more.  Beginning its 5th season, Conscious Living features fun and insightful segments inspiring viewers around the world to live a more conscious life by taking responsibility for making choices that sustain themselves, their communities and the planet--all while enjoying the good life!

Green Exchange is pleased to partner with Michael and Bianca to help bring Chicago's good green news to the world.  They will be producing and airing episodes about the Green Exchange community throughout their worldwide online syndication network, their website (www.consciouslivingtv.com) and ours (www.greenexchange.com) beginning later this winter.  Stay tuned to watch their adventures as they make their eco-way from California to Chicago and find out what it takes to create a sustainable home and studio in one of the Green Exchange work/live lofts.
