Testimonials
Home owner (or occupant) TestimonyWe set out to design and build a house that was both highly energy efficient and healthy to live in. In my view as an architect and the homeowner, it takes three things to build a good house: (1) an energy model that allows an architect and owner to measure choices that have long-lasting environmental impact; (2) a builder experienced in how to cost-effectively put together all the pieces; and (3) a strong grasp of Passive House methods so the details are executed well, such as ensuring … insulating and airtight qualities.Testimony CitationHomeowner
