green building: Passive house
- Project Details
- Based loosely on Edward Morses Trombe wall, this home's central corridor is a sun collector in winter and a passive ventilator in summer. The extra wide 1.5 meter corridor is flanked by 26 square meters of glass on the north and an internal cast concrete wall that forms the spine of this L shaped home. With its 250mm thick external walls clad in cedar this home is a simple approach to passive design.
