Project Summary

Throughout planning, design, and construction, the project team was committed to sustainability. Building systems were completely replaced to optimize occupant comfort and energy efficiency. The building envelope was repaired and reconstructed to improve thermal performance and minimize infiltration. Materials and resources were selected with the intent of mitigating the environmental impacts of harvesting, extraction and manufacturing. The resulting project demonstrates the project team’s respect for the historical integrity of the original residence, while providing modern amenities which support occupant health and comfort
