This 1960’s era Santa Barbara tract home was completely renovated and recycled into a new GREEN custom residence for a movie producer and his graphic designer wife by Michael Holiday. The small but sweet 1,800 SF home was completely transformed from the original “cottage” aesthetics and was carefully planned to fall below all City neighborhood and public review procedures requirements, saving months off the overall review and approval process. The home included a number of green and sustainable features including naturally daylit and passively ventilated living area, high fly ash concrete counters, LOW VOC paints & finishes, energy efficient lighting, and drought tolerant / fire resistive landscaping. How about that kitchen?
