Main entry from Woodlawn Avenue
During the 2005 AIA Venice Home Tour, I got the chance to visit the Solar Umbrella House.

This neighborhood was laced with walking trails and mature landscape that helped separate the closely sited dwellings that were based on a style celebrating inside/outside qualities of living. Within this constructed environment, fabricated on conventional [...]]]></description>
