Located in, Summit Park, Park City UT lies one of the most efficient houses in the country. The Summit Haus – designed and built by Chris Price of PCD+B, is an exploration in design and construction of advanced high performance housing. Seeing a rising demand for sustainable housing along with rising Carbon emissions leading to global warming, this house strives to show that sensible, good design can create spaces adequate for today’s housing demands while adhering to strict standards. The house was designed to meet the very rigid Passiv House rating system – 90% more efficient than a typical home in the area. The house itself was intended to nestle neatly into the 45 degree sloped site and to take full advantage of the limited solar access and views. The views range from short, highly wooded views to a long corridor out towards the Uinta Mountain range towards the east. The house was designed and built based off Passiv Haus standards, and the framing and ventilation became critical elements to maintain such minimal energy requirements. Zola triple-pane, tilt-and-turn Thermo uPVC windows contribute substantially to the home’s energy efficiency, and takes advantage of the beautiful surrounding of the location, including forrest views from the deck off of the kitchen.

The contemporary styled Ebner residence sits perched atop a hill in West Atascadero with sprawling 360 degree views. The 3-winged floor plan was designed to maximize these views and create a comfortable retreat for the Ebners and visiting guests. Upon arriving at the home, you are greeted by a stone spine wall and 17’ mitered window that focuses on a majestic oak tree, with the valley beyond. The great room is an iconic part of the design, covered by an arch formed roof with exposed custom made glulam beams. The exterior of the house exemplifies contemporary design by incorporating corten cladding, standing seam metal roofing, smooth finish stucco and large expanses of glass. Amenities of the house include a wine cellar, drive through garage, private office and 2 guest suites.

In the back of the addition is the one bay art shop with access to the patio work area and material storage. Above in the round gable end is the paint studio and the gable end is the sitting area. This project was a major transformation to the existing residence. It contained an addition of a two car garage, another bay at the back for an artist shop, laundry room and mud room off the garage connecting with a new front entry on the main level. The front entry has a grand stair that splits half way up serving the existing house and a new access to the master suite as well as the second level of the garage addition. This second level contains an art studio with close off rooms for grandkids a sitting area, and a full bath with two sinks. At the same time, the entire existing house was remodeled and most all rooms were relocated and re-arranged to accommodate a new kitchen, a family room, two guest rooms with baths on suite and a new master bedroom and bath on the upper level.

The Danbridge is a 2,144 sq. ft. fabulous split level floor plan. You will love the open concept kitchen, dining area and great room. The stunning cabinetry and butcher block counter tops are a focal point of the kitchen, and a contemporary fireplace extends to the 12 ft ceiling in the great room. With 3 bedrooms plus a beautiful master bedroom with ensuite, this home is the perfect design for a busy family. The finished lower level offers ample space for family living. The covered deck extends your living space to the backyard, and the exterior upgrades include an irrigation system, insulated garage and concrete driveway.
