Spanish Media to Televise Feature on Architecture Faculty Member Sandra Vivanco
Posted on Monday, April 26, 2010, by Jim Norrena
CCA’s Sandra Vivanco, an associate professor of Architecture and Diversity Studies and principal of the San Francisco-based firm A+D, Architecture + Design (named in 2009 by California Home + Design magazine as one of its “10 Architects to Watch”), will have a recent project featured on Spanish-language Channel 14’s ¡Al Despertar! program Tuesday, April 27, from 6–7 a.m. (See complete details.)
The Henriquez Residence project entailed completely rebuilding an existing working-class turn-of-the-20th-century cottage into a 2,100-square-foot, four-bedroom minimalist home that “also proves that a green house can be built for a mind-bogglingly low price: $240 per square foot, about half the going rate.” The end result, a charming, livable house, has all the qualifications for LEED (leadership in energy and efficiency design) gold certification.
