The homeowners had a keen interest in sustainable building practices and living. Kala was happy to help incorporate sustainability into their new custom home.

We collaborated with architect Dan Maginn of Dake Wells and the homeowner to incorporate many high performance construction details during the design process to ensure the home was energy efficient, durable, healthy and comfortable.
