#435 - Designing Fire-Resistant Homes in Los Angeles

This week David and Marina of FAME Architecture & Design discuss strategies for creating a fire-resistant home. The two cover what causes wildfires to spread, the 3-layer approach to fire-resistant design, materials, roof design, deck design, window types, framing, insulation, the Pacific Palisades, active fire-suppressant systems, landscaping, and site-planning. FAME is offering complimentary Project Starter Services to anyone rebuilding their home due to the recent wildfires in Los Angeles.
