The iconic and compact form of the gabled roof lends itself perfectly to the Passive House standard. \u00a0This project is an example of \u00a0thoughtful high design that minimizes complex construction in order to shift budget into efficient mechanical systems. \u00a0At the end of the day the project is stunning and the cost to operate the building is incredibly low.<\/p>\n

The design firm behind this project is named ZeroEnergy Design. \u00a0According to their website<\/strong><\/a>, “We believe that great design should enhance the value of each place, make optimal utility of space, elicit an emotional response, and use less energy. \u00a0Our designs are inspired by clients and the surrounding landscape, resulting in an architecture that is uniquely informed by both subject and place. We are also committed to designing homes and buildings that use 50% less energy than building code requires, in pursuit of energy independence.”<\/p>\n
