Where?

This building is a renovation and conversion of existing commercial building for retail use plus addition of duplex single family home above

The design is an attempt to create a passive solar house to minimize heating and cooling costs. We achieved this by constructing a well-insulated building shell out of the ICF building system and a large south-facing triple-insulated glass facade which leads to a roof garden on top of the retail space.

as a supplement to the passive solar concept, we utilized an HVAC split system with a heat pump rather than a typical furnace and A/C unit.the heating cost is further reduced through an energy recovery ventilator, which uses the warm exhaust air to preheat the incoming cool fresh air.
