Interesting stuff - sure we will see more of it. But the architect emphasizes still a lot of luck needed to survive that kind of firestorm

A modern home in Pacific Palisades survived the fire while all the homes around it burned. It was luck, but also it was made to withstand a wildfire, and it did.
I spoke with the architect who designed it, plus other architects, about designing for disaster: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
