Webinar: Ageless Elegance: Steel Windows and Doors by Euroline
2020-08-19 12:00 - 13:00 (America/Los_Angeles)
When architects want to make a statement of timeless elegance in luxury homes, they may specify steel windows and doors.
The history of steel goes back thousands of years. Buildings with steel windows may be hundreds of years old. Today, with advancements in glazing, coatings, and sustainability, steel windows and doors are seeing surging popularity in upscale homes.
As we’ll see in this course, steel windows and doors often help architects stand out and give homeowners the distinctive look and superior performance they desire.

Designed to Disappear
2020-09-16 12:00 - 13:00
This course will introduce the builder, designer, or architect to the benefits of hiding technology into the design and architecture of a project. The course will begin by defining the luxury experience in residential design. It will then dive deeper into audio and lighting as elements that influence the luxury experience. Finally, the course will present solutions for hiding these and other technologies into design and architecture.
Speaker Scott Foco has been actively involved in the residential Custom Installation industry for over 15 years. He spent time working for integration companies in both the Portland and Seattle markets before transitioning over to the vendor supply side of the business. The time he spent as an integrator working with builders, designers, architects and end users has provided invaluable experience in understanding the challenges and needs felt by all parties involved in a custom project. Scott has worked with Sonance for the last five years and is now responsible for sharing the “Designed to Disappear” message with partners across the western half of the United States.

3CREN: Integrated Design & Commissioning for Non-Res Title 24 Compliance Pt. 2
2020-09-17 09:00 - 22:30
We’ll go through the top 10 compliance areas that frequently snag a plan review for non-residential energy code compliance, and discuss how to get it right the first time. Whether you’re an applicant or a plan checker, you’ll want to know what to look for, how to avoid common mistakes and how to make sure you have accurate compliance forms.
An important aspect is building commissioning (Cx), a process to ensure that our non-residential buildings perform and operate as designed. Rather than seeing Cx as one more burden, we’ll talk about efficiently meeting the requirements and enjoying the short-term and long-term benefits.

The Advancements of Window Systems and Specialty Oversized Impact & Fire-Rated Windows and Skylights
2020-10-21 12:00 - 13:00
The technology of the glass industry is evolving rapidly as natural disaster threats increase, terroristic concerns continue to be significant, and the design community continues to push the limits of what is possible. This course will cover the evolution of glass over the past 5 years, a new generation of specialty windows and skylights which offer the ability to passively withstand impact, fire, and extreme conditions, as well as push the limits of size as it pertains to oversized applications. Upon completion of this course, the participants will have a thorough understanding of the new applications and specifications for oversized, impact, fire rated and specialty window systems and skylights that can be applied today in the rapidly evolving construction industry.

Pepper Hill house in Montecito presents a new type of residence, a truly 21st-century structure,
shifting the relationship between built structure and the landscape, not inserting itself as
an isolated and singular object but gradually emerging as part of the hilltop, as if interior
spaces have been carved from under its natural surface. The home’s design celebrates this
area’s natural beauty, recognizing the rich local history of Montecito and continuing the
tradition of notable residences by trailblazing architects, each defining the face of

Building technology – how Modular Building is changing Single Family Residential Construction
2020-12-16 12:00 - 13:00
Construction costs are increasing, skilled labor is in decline, and the permitting process is becoming more stringent and time consuming. These factors require a paradigm shift in residential construction. New developments in modular, factory built homes are a viable solution to the problem. Join us for a discussion about how factory built homes can accommodate any level of customization while being permitted and built faster than their stick built counterparts. We’ll cover how you can tap into the state permitting process as well as how modular homes can apply to complete custom designs, ADU’s and even remodel/additions.
Presented by Bryan Henson of Bevyhouse
After leading an innovative, high-end construction company for over 12 years, Bryan Henson formed Bevyhouse as a solution to the increasing cost, time and client fatigue associated with custom home building. Bevyhouse’s mission is to provide high quality, beautiful homes that are faster and more cost effective than traditional building practices. Bevyhouse exists to partner with architects and designers to design, fabricate and install custom homes using a suite of pre-engineered components to deliver custom projects with factory precision and efficiency.
