We’re revisiting two groundbreaking projects that left a lasting impact not just on our company, but on the global home-building community.
First, we sit down with homeowners David and Thuy Smith to reflect on their decade of living in Active House USA, a cutting-edge, energy-efficient home completed in 2013. They share insights on how the home has performed over the years, the surprises they encountered when building, and how they came to be part of such an important project.
Then, we take a look back at Proud Green Home, a 2016 project in Wildwood, MO, designed to meet the highest standards of sustainable construction. Built with the highest standards for indoor air quality to ease allergy and asthma issues for the client's children, this home also served as a model for green building.
Both homes served as real-world learning labs for builders, architects, and students, pushing the boundaries of residential green building. That is why we chose to take a look back on them for this episode of our 20 Homes for 20 Years.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
