an imported earthen material; no paint was used.

the foundation and pool excavation, was reused in architectural elements
complimenting rural design. Other elements include a solar heated
saltwater swimming pool. Temperature in the home can be regulated
by electronic skylights and dual pane windows, in lieu of air conditioning
and heating, due to the high quality of insulation.
The landscaping of the property is done with recycled foliage including
100+-year-old olive trees, palm trees, and grape vines. The greenery
creates a dramatic backdrop to the simply breathtaking pool. From
