Slow Home Studio – MDF Alternatives

It’s Tuesday, September 28th, 2010, and for today’s Design Challenge, we need you to help us answer a viewer question from Maria in Los Angeles. Maria watched the case study last week where John and Matthew described a MDF cap detail on a kitchen island. She thinks the detail is great but is concerned with using MDF because of its potentially toxic nature.

For this week’s Design Challenge, we need you to help us research MDF alternatives that may be used for custom woodwork, millwork or carpentry. Please send your suggestions and photos to john@slowhomestudio.com or post them to the blog. We look forward to seeing what you can come up with!
John and Matthew will be reviewing all of your suggestions in a special LIVE Workshop this Thursday, September 30th at 8am Pacific, 9am Mountain, 11am Eastern. Also, don’t forget to tune in tonight at 5pm Pacific, 6pm Mountain, 8pm Eastern to watch John and Matthew’s Case Study review of a Housebrand bungalow renovation.
