Modern Design Meets Green Architecture

By Bethany Colson, Managing Editor of LuxEco Living and Beauty Expert In 2006, James and Nancy Chuda completed their labor of love: their Green Home under the "H" of the iconic Hollywood sign.

However, going green didn't mean that their classic good taste would be sacrificed; their modern design would meet green architecture.
