The Story
From the outset of this project, the clients expressed a desire to make their residence highly sustainable with environmentally conscious aspects of design incorporated where possible. As the Ottawa Architect it was important to me to insure as many elements and new building techniques were incorporated throughout the design and construction of the home in order to meet the client’s wishes.
Sustainable Elements:
- Double insulated wall system
- Fly Ash concrete cladding
- Reclaimed wood and metal cladding
- Solar powered hot water tank
- Bullfrog energy supplied
- Green Roof
- Radiant in floor heating
- On site water retention
- Interior Fresh air Garden
- Passive cooling stack effect openings
- Passive solar heat gains (concrete mass collectors)
