Passive solar design — optimized orientation, thermal mass, compact footprint, deep roof overhangs, and shading analysis maximize daylight and reduce energy demand
Super-insulated airtight envelope — continuous thermal boundary minimizes heat loss and improves comfort. R10 under the entire slab, R27 walls, R43 roof
High-efficiency mechanical systems — 21-SEER variable speed heat pump paired with an ERV for energy savings and improved indoor air quality
Daylight-driven interiors — skylights, clerestories, and window placement reduce artificial lighting and support natural ventilation
Windows — Combination of Marvin Essential, Ultimate, and Modern series with Low-E3 glazing for improved thermal performance and solar control
Skylights — Velux units with LoE-366 glazing, oriented north to reduce solar heat gain while providing balanced daylight
Landscaping — Native plantings reduce irrigation demand and support local birds and pollinators
