Organized Living Featured in Green Builder Media's Mariposa Meadows Project

Organized Living is proud to have partnered with Green Builder® Media on the Vision House Mariposa Meadows project - the first-ever carbon-neutral, off-grid demonstration compound nestled in the scenic San Juan Mountains near Telluride, Colorado.

Mariposa Meadows showcases a variety of sustainable solutions, ranging from high-performance building envelope systems to intelligent water and wildlife risk mitigation. These elements not only create a renewable and sustainable facility but also respect and protect the surrounding wildlife and natural environment.  

A Milestone in Sustainable Living

“This project is one of the crown jewels in our VISION House series,” said Sara Gutterman, CEO of Green Builder Media. “Organized Living’s authentic sustainability story and high-quality products made them a natural partner for Mariposa Meadows.”

Organized Living contributed eco-friendly storage systems like freedomRail® and VUE®, designed for durability and adaptability. These systems utilize FSC-certified materials and thermally fused laminates with up to 100% post-industrial content, aligning with the project’s commitment to responsible sourcing and quality craftsmanship.

“We love systems like freedomRail that are adjustable and allow flexibility over time,” Gutterman added. “Organized Living’s solutions are easy to install, aesthetically pleasing, and perfectly suited to our sustainability goals.”
