Eco Friendly Westside Home

I remember seeing this house on Dwell a few years ago. I was fascinated by its outdoor sleeping pavilion (with a swing!) on the second level, but that was just a detail of the house. The owners (and now the seller) of the house are partners at Minarc, a Santa Monica-based firm specializing in sustainable architecture and design. Naturally, the house showcases some of their best ideas for sustainable design. For more details on the house, read the articles on Dwell and Los Angeles Times.
