HGTV selects Denver for 2011 green home giveaway
The 2011 HGTV green home will feature a contemporary design.

HGTV has chosen Stapleton, Colo., as the location for its fourth HGTV Green Home.

Stapleton is an eco-progressive community created on the site of a former airport in Denver. Over the past decade, it has emerged as one of the country's most ambitious examples of sustainable development. The region is reusing/recycling 4,700 acres of land and reconnecting it to Denver's urban fabric.

The 2,400-square-foot, custom-built green home will be given away as part of the HGTV Green Home grand prize package next spring. More than 17 million people entered to win the 2010 HGTV home in Plymouth, Mass., which went to a New York couple in June.

"The HGTV Green Home gives us an opportunity to display the latest products and highlight the newest practices for the ever-evolving standards of sustainable living," said HGTV house planner Jack Thomasson. "The combination of a spectacular eco-healthy home design, built in a vibrant community, will undoubtedly make this our most dynamic HGTV Green Home ever."

Plans for the home feature open spaces that flow together to create an interactive environment. The home's exterior mix of hipped and cantilevered roof forms will give a feel of a winged structure, recalling the site's airport past. Constructed by Infinity Home Collection of Denver, it will feature construction and design elements that are known to contribute to an energy efficient, cleaner and healthier living environment.  

Viewers can enter to win the HGTV Green Home Giveaway grand prize package from April 14-June 2, 2011.

"We're honored that HGTV has selected the Infinity for the construction of its 2011 HGTV Green Home," said David Steinke, general manager, Infinity Home Collection. "We love building smart homes for smart people, and to us building green is practically second nature. It gives us great pleasure to have our work featured as part of this year's HGTV Green Home Giveaway."
