FIRST PLACE GREEN DESIGN Lori Dennis, ASID, LEED AP graduated from the UCLA Interior Design Program in 1998 and formed Dennis Design Group, specializing eco-friendly residential, commercial and hospitality interiors in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, Miami, Palm Springs, and New York. With this remodel for a Los Angeles condo she paid painstaking attention was to small but significant ways to flood the space with light and improve airflow to lessen the dependency on the HVAC system.
