• A high efficiency 90+ % tanklesswater heater and forced air furnace have been installed.
• A full house fan supplements passive heat venting.
• Roof oriented and pre-wired for solar• The stair brings natural light and venti-
lation to the center of the home.• Energy Star rated appliances• Kitchen counter composed of 55%
recycled material• Recycled glass backsplash• No-VOC paint• Strand Bamboo Flooring• Low-E, Dual Glazed Windows.• Fiber Cement Rain Screen• Recycled and reused materials, above
code insulation and waterproofing, water efficient plumbing and fixtures, low or no off-gassing materials, passive cooling, energy efficient lighting and appliances all add sustainable elements to this home as does the home’s mod-erate and efficient size.
Framing was saved in place in some locations and reused in others.
Impermeable surface were minimized andrunoff has been directed to an infiltration pit.

Passive Solar Features
The footprint of the house is oriented for optimum sunlight, using large southern windows for passive heating. These same windows aid in passive summer cooling, drawing in ocean breezes as warm indoor air vents through the circulation tower, and thermal mass walls slow the transfer of heat and cold through the exterior of the structure, so that daytime heat can be enjoyed through the night.
The thermal mass of the Apex Block, an innovative composite material, provides three times the insulation of typical construction, slowing the transfer of heat and cold through the exteri-or wall of the structure. This 80% recycled material is naturally resistent to mold and termites, provides a four-hour fire wall, and diverts polystyrene from the landfill for recycled use in this highly efficient building material.
Active Solar Features
A photo-voltaic system on the roof provides energy and hot water to meet the owner’s needs. In coordination with passive solar features, the house remains comfortable year-round, with-out the energy use of typical mechanical systems.
Water Runoff Mitigation System
A water cistern is used in place of the typical subsurface infiltration pit to meet the City of Santa Monica’s urban water runoff mitigation requirements. Water runoff from the roof and site are stored in the cistern for future use. Stored water is pumped into the irrigation system to reduce the use of potable water for plant maintenance.

Cherokee Lofts
Spotlight Features:
• 40% more energy efficient than California’s very strict energy code for newly construct-ed buildings and more than 100% efficient than buildings built just 10 years ago saving owners real money while reducing greenhouse gases.
• Architectural Dynamic Double Façade which is owner controlled creates a eye-catching and fluid external view while providing shading to cool the building, reducing noise, enhancing privacy, and still allowing for spectacular views, great natural light and venti-lation from ocean breezes which pass through its millions of perforations even when all panels are closed.
• Advanced Cooling and Heating Comfort System which is being used in Canada’s new 2010 Olympic Village cools and warms floors, ceilings, and walls to create a perfectly temperate environment better for respiratory systems, skin, and overall health and com-fort.
• Green Building Orientation with the central courtyard between the two residential struc-tures allows for daylighting on both sides of every unit while allowing prevailing breezes to fully pass through the units for natural ventilation.
• Green Roof provides greenery for occupants to enjoy while keeping the building better insulated, cleaning the air, and reducing storm water run off.
• Water Conservation will be accomplished with dual flush toilets, efficient fixtures, hot water circulators, and drought tolerate landscaping.
• Solar Power will power all common area electrical loads and a percentage of the heat-ing and hot water needs for the building reducing energy needs and HOA fees.
• Green Location is achieved by proximity to a Metro Rapid Bus and walkability to coffee, organic grocery, restaurants, great shopping, and major entertainment centers.
• Green Materials and Products used extensively throughout such as cellulose insulation, FSC Certified wood, and aluminum to name a few are recycled, renewable, and contain no VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds).
All of these green features help to reduce the impact on the environment while providing a less expensive building to operate and maintain and ultimately a healthier and better place to live.
