This home is a full integration of a wide range of green concepts including zoned geothermal HVAC and a whole house fan system.

The design theme was inspired by 19th century farmhouse vernacular.

Other green features include an exhaustive use of low V.O.C. materials, finishes and adhesives, operable transoms in the bedooms, reclaimed wood flooring, foam insulation and cement fiberboard siding.

added by Kathryn to How to Winterize Your Home
If you have a large house then you need to make sure that it is properly insulated for the winter. If you have high ceilings then you want to add attic or rooftop insulation to limit the loss of heat rising.
added by Becky Harris to My Dream House
Winter wonderland fantasy. For some reason this kind of reminds me of the house in "Rachel Getting Married", one of the most annoying movies I've ever seen in my life (dishwasher race scene, shaky nausea-inducing camera work - UGH!).
added by Margaret Everton to Winterizing Your Windows With Class
You can enjoy the beauty of your windows in all of their varieties AND stress less about heating costs by tweaking a few details.
Under its thick mantle of snow, this 19th-century farmhouse-inspired home in Illinois suggests the quintessential winter retreat.

This house in the snow is so picturesque, all it needs are Christmas lights and garland.
