Designing a Single-Family ”Home of the Future”

How do you design a sustainable single-family home for a luxury market? Just bump into a sustainable architect at your local Starbucks! Listen in as Drew Pedrick, Ginger Matthews, and I delve into project specs on energy modeling, passive heating/cooling, triple-pane windows, greywater recycling, rain screen technology, home automation, stone selection, carbon and more!

Fact: You can have a team of highly-skilled experts with analytical minds and great ideas and you'll still run into some problems along the way. How you learn from those mistakes and adapt to site and project environment will ultimately determine your level of success.
