Presented by WELCOME A special message from the 2014 Costa Mesa Home for the Holidays Home Tour Chair: W e are thrilled to bring a new tradition to Costa Mesa with this first ever Costa Mesa Home for the Holidays Home Tour. Our neighboring schools in Newport Beach and Corona del Mar have been hosting home tours as an annual fundraiser for Newport Harbor High School & Corona del Mar for more than three decades. It’s through the generosity of their organizing committees and leaders that we were able to collaborate to bring this time honored event to Costa Mesa. We are excited to showcase five unique Costa Mesa homes from all parts of the city, along with the Mesa Water “Water Wise Wonderland” garden project. The five homes represent the eclectic nature of Costa Mesa and its variety of neighborhoods and homes. We hope that in the years to follow that this event continues to showcase all of the great neighborhoods in Costa Mesa while raising money for the Arts & Science Academies: ACE & DELTA at Costa Mesa Middle and High School. “We are equally grateful to the generosity of our title business sponsors Jay & John Kelly Real Estate, GreenLeaf Gourmet ChopShop and SOCO Collection.” We, on the Home Tour Committee, are extremely grateful to the homeowners who open their homes to us. It’s wonderful to have two CMHS Zone families participating. None of these business owners have children in our local schools, but they care about and love Costa Mesa. They gave more than just financial resources, they contributed countless hours assisting the homeowners to prepare, working with the designers, attending meetings, marketing and promoting our first event. We truly appreciate them and encourage you to support their businesses. Please enjoy the entire day with us. Visit each and every home and the Garden tour, enjoy a delicious lunch at SOCO provided by GreenLeaf Gourmet ChopShop, be entertained by our CMHS Madrigals 4 costamesahometour.com and Jazz band, peruse the student art gallery and shop in our holiday boutique. Then after it’s all finished… please join us for the after party sponsored by Gatehouse. We will be celebrating the success of our first home tour, our community’s support for the arts and sciences at CMHS, and the start of the holiday season. Thank you for sharing this day with us and helping us to make Costa Mesa Middle and High Schools one of the best schools in California. Katrina Anne Foley CMHS Foundation President PRINCIPAL’S MESAGE T hank you for joining us today and supporting the Costa Mesa High School Home for the Holidays tour. Today’s event symbolizes a meaningful relationship between CMHS, CMHS Foundation, community members, parents, civic organizations and businesses as we work together to enhance educational opportunities for the students of CMHS. Your support symbolizes an investment not only in our students and their education, but in the very fabric and future of Costa Mesa. Excellent education is correlated with better lifetime health, higher income, lower crime, and a stronger overall community. Thank you for your continued support and the additional opportunities you provide for the students of CMHS. Enjoy the CMHS Home for the Holiday tour and I look forward to seeing you at our school and future CMHS foundation events.

Origins/Renovations & Remodels: The homes were designed by the award winning architectural firm of JZMK Partners of Costa Mesa and developed by the team of Pinnacle Residential and Collective Housing Supply Co. We have a number of local firms included in our project. The project architect, JZMK is a Costa Mesa firm as well as a number of suppliers and consultants including: Kollrich plumbing fixtures manufactured in Costa Mesa are used exclusively. Nail It finish carpentry and stairs is located in Costa Mesa. Art Guy landscape architecture is a Costa Mesa resident. Robin Hamers civil engineering is a Costa Mesa company. Molly Wood Garden Design is a Costa Mesa landscape design business. Home Style: These beautiful new homes feature a “modern traditional” lifestyle that is at the same time both sophisticated and casual. The architecture has a decidedly “modern farmhouse” look that is typically found only in exclusive custom home developments. The spacious floor plans have been created to provide the best in Southern California coastal indoor-outdoor living with spacious great room and kitchen with 12 foot wall of glass that opens to your own private outdoor retreat. A must-have for the home: The homes at Collective include 3 bedrooms and 2 and 1/2 baths.

Music is what we can turn to in all moods and it’s not very often that we are living in just a silent home. Origins/Renovations & Remodels: We loved the layout of our ranch style Westside Costa Mesa home and the style that runs through the neighborhood, but we reached a point where we were longing for a bit more space. We took advantage of the large front lawn and, inspired by the Eichler homes in Orange, CA, used the space and added onto the home while maintaining the look and feel of the original home and layout. The laundry room and master bed/bath that come out towards the street were added on in 2007, thus creating what we now call the “compound” and a home where you can see inside and out, and into other parts of the home from most all points. Home Style: Outside, we refer to our house as Contemporary Costa Mesa/ California Ranch Style, while the inside is modernly eclectic. Inspired by music, art, travel, action sports, sustainability, and modern design, the home has reference to many an aspect of each of our lives. A must-have for the home: The kitchen. So much of our life revolves around the food in our lives and our kitchen. The newest addition to our home, it’s a central meeting place for friends, a place for breakfast and homework, a place for family happy hour, and a place for homemade meals and exploring new flavors all year long. A Few of Our Favorite Materials in the Home: We love the concrete throughout the compound, the bamboo floors, our custom TV/Record cabinet and kitchen and, of course our repurposed skate tile backsplash in the kitchen. A Few of Our Favorite Unusual Things: While they may not be unusual, you won’t find them in all homes: A solar array on the roof, composting and vermiposting in the backyard, a small skate street course in the backyard, an outdoor fireplace in the courtyard, and a wall in the kitchen made of previously used (one of them by our son) skate decks. Favorite spot at home on the weekend: Even though the master bedroom on Sundays, watching Sunday Morning the news show, or lounging on the chaise lounge on a mid-summer afternoon are close contenders, we all think that the opportunity to eat together in front of the outdoor fireplace in our front courtyard, with the music on, is quite special. We’ve had many an amazing evening with just family, and with many friends there. Favorite Home for the Holidays Tradition: Finding the perfect “Charlie Brown Christmas tree” and decorating it as a family with celebratory hot cocoa and obligatory Christmas music! 2014 First Annual Costa Mesa Home for the Holidays Home Tour- 2014 11 3 Mesa Mustangs Rob & Candace (Barton) Rice 1975 Jeff ‘95 & Jaime (Benson) Rice 1997 Sofia Rice Class of 2019 Travis Rice ‘98 & Brooke (Shanley) Rice 2001 Bryan and Myra (Dimson) Rice 1999 Style of Home: Traditional Mid-Century Architect for Remodel: Stern Architects, Inc. Builder for Remodel: Mesa Builders Interior Designer: Candace Rice Landscape Architect: R. Travis Rice The Rice Family Home Turf: Backyard Golf 2348 Colgate Drive, Costa Mesa, CA 92626 Home Tour Day Home and Garden Accessories: Gatehouse A mid-century traditional home that emphasizes the need for comfortable spaces for family gatherings for this growing Mustang family. Florals: Table2Garden 12 costamesahometour.com Special points of interest: This Costa Mesa family has a long history of Costa Mesa and Mustang Pride. The Rice family has lived in Costa Mesa since 1958. Their family members have attended every elementary school in the zone as well as Costa Mesa High School. They are also a family of educators. Rob Rice’s father was the Principal at Rea School when it was a junior high school, and Bryan is a history teacher and former CMHS Basketball coach. Their youngest granddaughter is active in Middle school ASB, a cheerleader, water polo player, and DELTA Science Academy student. They bleed green. Our College Park home addition was built with a growing family in mind. We now have 10 grandchildren, so we needed both the indoor and outdoor space to contain all of the energy. When we were completing the addition, we had not even ordered the bathroom fixtures when the fireplace, BBQ and outside stovetop were delivered. My husband believed they would be “value engineered” out of the addition, so he made sure they were on hand very early! The china painting in the family room cabinet and the lamp in the living room were painted by my Grandmother. Origins, Renovations/Remodels: A Few of Our Favorite Unusual Things: Our home was built in 1958 and had little renovation work until early in 2001. We started with the kitchen remodel and then just a couple of years later we pushed out the walls to create a bigger living space and the outdoor room. This meant tearing off the entire back of the house and raising the height of the roof. We lived in the house during the remodel. It was quite an adventure. We did all of the finish work ourselves, with a lot of help from friends and family. The result is a space big enough for many to enjoy. Our master bathroom was very, very tiny in our original home. With the addition, we were able to add double sinks, a large shower and our fantastic soaking tub. The outdoor fireplace that we installed is awesome. We spend many hours enjoying time outside, whether it is just the two of us, or we are entertaining a large group. We love the winding path that our son designed in the backyard. It is unusual and it provides some whimsy that blends well with the structure of the stone. Home Style: Favorite spot at home on the weekend: Giving our “style” a name is one of the hardest things for us. We have used ideas from the past and the present. We both love traditional homes, but we wanted ours to be welcoming and fun. A must-have for the home: The one thing that we had to have was the outdoor living space. With our large family, we needed as much room as possible, and being able to be outside at any time of the year is a real blessing. A Few of Our Favorite Materials in the Home: One of our favorites is the wood floors. They keep our home light and airy, and they really hide the wear and tear. As you can see from some of the other answers, our favorite place is the outdoor room. We enjoy sitting outside at any time of the year, especially in fall and winter when we can get full use of the fireplace. It is a wonderful place to relax with a glass of wine and reflect on the great place we get to live. Favorite Home for the Holidays Tradition: My favorite Christmas tradition happens when all of our children and grandchildren are gathered here on Christmas morning. The kids squeal with delight when they arrive, ready to share what Santa brought and thrilled to be together to celebrate and eat our traditional pre-breakfast favorite - Monkey Bread. 2014 First Annual Costa Mesa Home for the Holidays Home Tour- 2014 13 4 Style of Home: Mid Century Ranch Style; Modern Architect: AMK Studio Designer: Arlene Edjourian Landscape: Angels Landscape: Robert Renteria Home Tour Day Designer: Urbanism Florals: Broadway Botanicals The Gale Family Home 3008 Java Road, Costa Mesa CA 92626 This mid-century Mesa Verde golf course view home has been upgraded and remodeled into a modern style with clean simplicity. 14 costamesahometour.com Origins/Renovations & Remodels: Our Mesa Verde home was remodeled in 2012. The entire back of the house was torn down to the foundation and rebuilt. The 3 children’s rooms were left alone except for we added 1 bathroom. Home Style: Mid Century Modern. We love the clean simple lines of modern homes. A must-have for the home: We had to have an open great room with indoor-outdoor feel. We wanted a room that we could have a lot of people in and not have it feel cramped and at the same time flow to the outdoors where our SOCAL weather could be enjoyed. A Few of Our Favorite Materials in the Home: Cement, metal and Cesar stone. We love our cement floors and our metal fleetwood windows and doors. A Few of Our Favorite Unusual Things: There are ZERO appliances or video components visible, as everything is hidden to keep the clean look. Favorite spot at home on the weekend: On the golf course during the day and in our spa at night. Favorite Home for the Holidays Tradition: Having the entire family over for Thanksgiving! 2014 First Annual Costa Mesa Home for the Holidays Home Tour- 2014 15 5 The Schobel Family Home 3497 Santa Clara Circle, Costa Mesa, CA 92626 An update to the Costa Mesa, California coastal surburban track home with a mix of mid-century style inside. Style of Home: California Coastal Architect: Rick Overley Builder (Remodel): Bob Drake- BJM Construction Designer: Lori Vis Landscape: Taratino Landscape Hardscape: Simply Pavers-Kris Heftvec Home Tour Day Designer: Zoe Bios Creative- Amy & Caitlin Dinkins - Hayley Alder Florals: Blanca Floral & Garden—Laura B 16 costamesahometour.com Special points of interest: The solar attic fans and hidden surround sound are special features we enjoy. Origins/Renovations & Remodels: Our Mesa Woods home was originally built in 1966. As our family grew, as well as our desire to remain in our home, our need to add shared living space and a larger, more efficient kitchen became apparent. We added 950 square feet comprised of a “great room”...open layout kitchen/family room and a laundry/mud room. Home Style: The outside of our home is California Coastal with its wood siding, pillar construction, and front porch. We also have a wrap-around covered porch in the backyard. The inside is more eclectic with a mix of mid-century modern, French provincial, and California easy-living. Our style has evolved over the years and our house reflects the many phases we have gone through. A must-have for the home: Definitely moving the washer/dryer from the garage to inside the house. We now have a large laundry/mud room that lessens the pain of doing laundry! A Few of Our Favorite Materials in the Home: We love natural stone and used it throughout the house - marble backsplash in the kitchen, marble shower floor, granite countertops. Our hardwood floors are distressed which help to mask the wear and tear from our family of 6. We used wallpaper in the guest bath to add some whimsy. Our furniture is a mix of leather, fabric, and different woods from teak to walnut to rosewood. A Few of Our Favorite Unusual Things: All exterior walls are 2” X 6” (most homes are 2” X 4”) and insulated so the house is very environmentally sound. We have used mostly LED lamps throughout the bedrooms and hallways. All exterior security motion lights are LED. The 2 attic fans are solar. Our dining room chandelier came out of an old Albertsons grocery store remodel my company did and we kept it in our garage for over 5 years waiting to find a great spot for it. Favorite spot at home on the weekend: We love our oversized leather couch in our family room because our whole family can snuggle on it and watch TV! 2014 First Annual Costa Mesa Home for the Holidays Home Tour- 2014 17 6 Water Wise Wonderland M esa Water® has decked our gardens to create a Water-Wise Wonderland!

By utilizing their strengths in the Arts, teachers guide students to higher levels of achievement in all subject areas by linking the Arts with English, Math, Science and History for an enriched academic experience. ACE students participate in arts course work through an extended day schedule. This schedule permits students to cross idioms (e.g. participation in theatre and dance or orchestra, choir, and band simultaneously is possible). Studying the arts prepares students considerably for the workplace. According to Americans for the Arts, “U.S. employers rate creativity and innovation among the top five skills that will increase in importance in the next five years, and rank it among the top challenges facing CEOs.” ACE will provide students with the essential skills in the performing arts that will benefit them as they prepare for college/career. ACE Prep Sonora Arts Academy of Creative Expression (SAACE) Sonora Elementary school will prepare students to matriculate to ACE at the middle school and is ready to launch the Sonora Arts Academy of Creative Expression (SAACE) (ACE Prep) in the 2014-15 school years.

Sonora teachers have been professionally trained by Master Teaching Artists from the SCA (Segerstrom Center for the Arts) and Arts Advantage. Both teachertraining programs involve strategic integration of the arts with academics, which aligns to the STEAM model at CMMS and CMHS. Sonora is also the only school within the Costa Mesa Zone to add a kiln for ceramics instruction. Every grade has participated in the use of ceramics as an art medium. Currently, Sonora relies on parent and community volunteers to sustain its unique arts focus.

DELTA & ACE Prep College Park Elementary Mandarin Immerson Beginning in the Fall of 2015, College Park will become a duel immersion Mandarin English school. The educational program at College Park endeavors to identify, nurture and celebrate these qualities in all of our students.
