Old Town Scotts­dale is a his­toric down­town area, once known for cowboy-Western shops and art gal­leries, that is now expe­ri­enc­ing a remod­ern­iza­tion and revi­tal­iza­tion. In a class of its own, this mul­ti­mil­lion-dol­lar, mod­ern two-home mas­ter­piece com­ple­ments the near­by down­town and arts dis­trict. These lux­u­ry walk-ups pay homage to ear­ly urban Mediter­ranean archi­tec­ture with all the sophis­ti­ca­tion of the 21^st cen­tu­ry.

Ash­bury Hills Ele­men­tary School is the first com­plete school built with ICFs in the state of Nebras­ka, and its gym­na­si­um was built to full height with Fox Blocks.

Fox Blocks Com­pact offers more eco­nom­i­cal ship­ping costs by deliv­er­ing flat. Ties can then be insert­ed eas­i­ly into the pan­els at the job­site. This com­pact prod­uct is designed to stack seam­less­ly with the tra­di­tion­al Fox Blocks line.

This build gave 30 high school stu­dents hands-on expe­ri­ence build­ing a home with Fox Blocks ICF from the ground up.

The project was built to cre­ate a sound and visu­al bar­ri­er between the neigh­bor­ing home after a sec­tion of trees on the side yard that joined the two prop­er­ties was cleared.

Fox Blocks ICF offered an ener­gy-effi­cient solu­tion for a build­ing full of pres­sur­ized mois­ture because mois­ture does not affect the ICF, even over the long term. Pota­to stor­age is at a con­stant 100% rel­a­tive humid­i­ty and 1.5 cfm pres­sure, which caus­es oth­er forms of con­struc­tion to go through com­plex detail­ing to keep mois­ture out of the wall cav­i­ty.

As with all movie stu­dio projects, sched­ule was a crit­i­cal ele­ment for this film pro­duc­tion facil­i­ty.

This mas­sive home, an incred­i­ble mix of tra­di­tion­al styling and mod­ern tech­nol­o­gy, includes hand-carved mar­ble man­tles, a 1,500-bottle brick wine cel­lar, five wood-burn­ing fire­places, a real stone bar with a 4” thick wal­nut book­end bar­top, and a cus­tom pyra­mid sky­light in the roof above the mas­ter bed­room.
