DESCRIPTION:Building a Beautiful Carbon Neutral Home\nSpeaker: Drew Maran and William 
 Duff\n\nYes, it is possible to build a carbon-neutral, green, beautiful 
 home!  Through engaging case studies from both an architectural and 
 construction perspective, Drew and William will show us how they have 
 achieved both beauty and function, while maintaining a strong focus on the 
 environment.  Beginning with a sophisticated sustainable design and by 
 using reclaimed lumber for structural and architectural elements, renewable 
 energy generated on site, a living roof, and other techniques, green homes 
 can achieve a high level of design and be green, with or without a Green 
 Point or LEED rating.\n\nDrew Maran is the founder and president of Drew 
 Maran Construction, Inc. (http://drewmaran.com/), a Palo Alto based 
 construction company dedicated to green building practices.  Founded in 
 1985, DMC is recognized as a leading builder of Green custom homes in 
 California.  His commitment to environmentalism has led to making Green 
 Building central to the company's mission.  Drew personally oversees the 
 sustainability program on each project, promoting Green solutions along 
 with sound project management.\n\nWilliam Duff is the founding principal of 
 William Duff Architects, Inc. (http://www.wdarch.com/), an award winning 
 San Francisco architecture firm specializing in residential, retail and 
 commercial projects.  His work is known for its elegant simplicity both in 
 plan and detail, and for a sophisticated use of materials, light and space 
 to create modern, sustainable architecture.  An expert in sustainable 
 design William is a LEED certified professional and has designed to a 
 carbon metric since 2005. \n\nTuesday 18 May 2010 at 5:00 pm (until about
