I am happy to report exciting news coming out of my alma mater’s Architecture Program. My thesis advisor at UVA, John Quale, is leading the EcoMod program which is redefining high-performance residential building in neighborhoods that need it most. His dedication to the concept of sustainable and affordable high quality design continues to inspire me. Read more about the exciting work in Architect magazine. I can’t wait to see data from annual monitoring that will compare the efficiency and comfort of the 2 homes. One is built to Passive House Standard and the other complies with current local energy code.
