Project Overview
Kevin and Libby, a retired couple, came to us with a clear vision for their dream home. They had purchased an older property with the intention of a knockdown rebuild that would create a highly energy-efficient home within a sensible budget.
The Process
Understanding the importance of energy efficiency, Kevin and Libby lived in the existing home for a year before the project began. This allowed them to study the sun angles on the block, ensuring their new home was perfectly positioned to capture the northern winter sun. With their valuable insights and our expertise, we collaborated to design a home that is efficient to run and an absolute joy to live in.
Features and Solutions
The final design incorporates sustainable materials and energy-saving technology, including:
The Outcome
This knockdown rebuild resulted in a stunning home that meets Kevin and Libby’s goals for energy efficiency and comfort. Thoughtfully designed to reduce running costs and environmental impact, the home is a beautiful example of how practical, sustainable solutions can create a space that truly feels like a dream come true.
