Clarium Homes collaborated with Sunset Magazine in building the house in 2005 as a Sunset Idea Home. It was designed to be both energy-efficient and stylish, and makes use of environmentally friendly materials. Solar roof tiles that convert sunlight to electricity, as well as a high-efficiency furnace and air-conditioning system. The programmable thermostats allow for dual-zone temperature control. Dual-flush toilets and low-flow shower heads conserve water. The landscaping was designed using drought-tolerant plants and ground cover as well as a drip-irrigation system plus a built-in grill and a flagstone patio. Inside bamboo floors, carpet and tile. Great living room/dining room/kitchen space downstairs and a separate space upstairs to use for play or work. Located with easy access to both U.S. 101 and the Dumbarton Bridge, and is a short walk from the Meta campus. Its part of a dynamic and caring neighborhood, and close to community parks as well as the Bay Trail.
