Job Sites in Maine, Part Three

Near passive house level home on a hill

Martin Holladay, writer for the Green Building Adviser, recently visited a small house we are building in Maine. He also visited other projects around the state and weighed in on energy efficient buildings in Maine. The house on a knoll will be a near passive house level, 1000SF home. The simple roof form and detailing are a great fit for the wooded knoll that it sits on. The primary facade faces east, with large windows overlooking a horse pasture. On the south facade, a large group of three windows faces the entry pathway, providing views of approaching visitors as well as allowing for passive solar gain.
