THE NINTH EDITION

A monthly newsletter from Sustainable 9

This month on The Ninth Edition, we’re honoring Earth Day by focusing on what it means to build something that truly lasts, homes that are healthier, more efficient, and thoughtfully designed to tread lighter on the planet.

Throughout April, we’ve been sharing short videos that highlight how sustainability is woven into every Sustainable 9 home, follow along on Instagram and YouTube.

HIGH IMPACT DESIGN, LOW IMPACT DEVELOPMENT

Our team prioritizes your well-being from the very first design decision. Every home is designed to pass rigorous third party certifications including: MN GreenPath, Energy Star, EPA’s Indoor airPLUS, and the Dept. of Energy’s Zero Energy Ready Home certifications, while features like triple-pane windows help keep your home comfortable year-round and maximize energy efficiency.

EVERY DETAIL SELECTED WITH CARE

Sustainability doesn’t begin with finishes; it begins on day one. From framing to insulation, we prioritize materials that are responsibly sourced, durable, and designed to perform for decades. Thoughtful planning reduces waste before construction even begins, and careful product selection ensures healthier indoor air and long-term efficiency.

+ Interiors

CHERISHED MOMENTS, EVERYDAY LUXURY

Our interior designers craft spaces with purpose, seamlessly balancing style and your well-being. They choose VOC-free finishes and responsibly sourced materials, partnering with skilled local tradespeople to ensure every detail is intentional. From paint to flooring, countertops to carpeting, and layout to lighting, every choice prioritizes safety, durability, and comfort – reflecting a deep commitment to your well-being and the environment.
