Taking Care of Business: Getting Real About Getting Green
Taking Care of Business is a video series in which host Duane Johns—a remodeler, builder, developer, coach, consultant, and co-host of the popular Builder Nuggets podcast—sits down with industry experts to get deep into some of custom building’s most top-of-mind topics.
In this episode, Johns interviews Stephen Pallrand, president of the design-build firm Home Front Build and founder of Carbon Shack, both in Los Angeles, about his work renovating, restoring, and improving historic homes and his commitment to green design-build practices and materials.
“Y’know, we’re the greenest people around because we’re encouraging people to take their existing home and not tear it down, but to modify it and adapt it for the way we live today and insulate it and change the energy systems … so that their homes align with their values.”
