Sustainable California House by John Friedman Alice Kimm Architects

Sustainable architecture is the future of home design. This California house designed by a sustainable architecture firm, John Friedman Alice Kimm Architects, encapsulates cool, contemporary living in its modern design with attention equally doles out to aesthetics and environmental sustainability. The pond also serves to cool warm air before it enters the house through the floor-to-ceiling windows. A concrete floor absorbs and stores the sun’s heat, which passively regulates the cooler night-time temperatures.
