Our client asked us to expand a small cottage; to add as little new space as possible to accommodate her needs but make it feel much larger, make it wholly non-toxic, energy efficient, filled with daylight, and to maximize the quality and connection to the lot’s outdoor spaces for gathering and edible gardens.

The house was featured on the Build It Green Homes Tour in Marin and Sonoma Counties. Build It Green chose the project for its Best Home Renovation Award and the hundreds of tour participants gave it their People’s Choice Award for all the tour homes in Marin. The house was also featured in the article “Eco-friendly and Stylish Too,” Marin IJ.
