Sustainability Expertise & Credentials
Sustainability Expertise: Yes
Sustainability Expertise & Credentials: Moore Ruble Yudell brings recent experience designing environmentally resilient homes in landscapes shaped by wildfire. Our work in post-fire areas emphasizes integrated strategies that strengthen building performance, enhance occupant safety, and restore ecological health. Guided by lessons from recent fires and a commitment to climate-responsive design, we pair site responsive architectural design with resilient systems—spanning building envelope, site design, energy water independence, and fire-adaptive landscapes.
Fire Resiliency Experience: Yes
Fire Resiliency Experience Details: Our design approach prioritizes site-specific, fire-adaptive design. A new Pacific Palisades home breaking ground in 2026 steps with the terrain to maximize views and daylight while maintaining a compact, resilient form. A loft-like main floor links to garden-defined defensible space, with a gallery stair lighting the upper rooms. Setbacks reduce radiant heat. Integrated systems include roof-mounted fire suppression system, onsite emergency cistern, solar backup, native drought-tolerant, fire-resilient planting, and durable, low-combustible materials.
