馬里布5號公寓坐落在山坡之上,選用了環保及可回收的材料建造,現代且具可持續性。設計使業主在白天甚至能為電網供電。
建筑由一個雙層的方形長條和一個單層結構組成,呈C型布局,室內格局為四房三衛。這一結構由一個庭園打破,海風流經后者,帶來一室清涼。所有的房間兩側均為開敞式,加強了對流。
房屋面朝太平洋,海風與充足的日照帶來了太陽能、自然光和美景。寬大的低輻射雙層日光防護窗內密封著空氣,可防冷熱的變化。陽臺的突出部分提供了陰涼。玻璃的大面積使用使室內陽光充足,從而也減少了人照光源的使用,后者用運動傳感開關來控制。

房子的景觀模仿山坡,栽種著生長在加利福尼亞的抗旱植物。從建筑地點移開的石頭被運用到了墻、小徑和節水型花園的建造中。可循環利用的水在一定程度上被用來灌溉。外部的打底灰泥層施以陶土色,體現了自然的紋理,使房屋與周邊環境自然銜接。這種色彩出現西非首都阿里拉的一個政府大樓,建筑師從那里采擷了靈感。
Vertically stacked and set into a hillside, Malibu 5 is a sustainable Modern home constructed of environmentally-friendly and recycled materials and designed to minimize energy use. The design was successful to the extent that the owners are contributing energy to the power grid during daylight hours.

Built as two, C-shaped rectangular bars – one two stories, one a single story over the garage – the house comprises four bedrooms and three bathrooms. The structures are separated by a courtyard that provides an opening for ocean breezes to cool the house. All rooms open on at least two sides to provide cross-ventilation.
The home faces the Pacific Ocean to take advantage of coastal breezes, energy-providing solar gain, natural light and views. Large solar- protected windows - the glass is double-paned, low-E and filled with hermetically sealed air – protect against the cold and heat. Shade is provided by overhangs from balconies. The large expanses of glass produce light-filled rooms and minimize the need for artificial lighting, which is controlled with motion sensor light switches.

The home’s landscaping, populated mainly with drought-resistant foliage indigenous to California, mimics the surrounding sloped, rocky hillside. Rocks removed to prepare the site for construction have been recycled in walls, paths and xeriscape. Recycled water is used for drip irrigation to a limited degree. The inexpensive scratched-plaster exterior is painted an earthy terra cotta color to provide a natural texture that smoothes the house’s introduction to its environment. The color is inspired by the hue the architect found on a government building in the West African capital city of Accra.
