2011 EcoHome Design Award Winner

Key to the successful design were the homeowner priorities of family health, energy performance, and optimizing the walk-to-town construction site. To maintain health and air quality, the home features a fresh air ventilation system with energy recovery, a whole house HEPA filtration system, radiant & radiator heating distribution, and low/no VOC materials. The home’s energy performance focuses on passive heating/cooling techniques, natural daylighting, an improved building envelope, and efficient mechanical systems, collectively achieving overall energy performance of 50% better than code. To address the site opportunities, the home utilizes a footprint that maximizes southern exposure in the rear while still capturing the park view in the front.

What Houzz contributors are saying:
Similarly, white floors, walls and ceiling make the master bedroom feel much larger. In addition, Kauffman Tharp took a cue from A Pattern Language and opted for a bed alcove. The philosophy is that when a room has to awkwardly adapt everything around a bed, it's all wasted and awkward space during all the other hours of the day when you're awake. Creating a special, cozy alcove for a bed creates a comfortable space just for sleeping, and leaves a lot of other space to use for "sitting space, play areas, dressing and storage" the rest of the day.
added by Rachel Grace to Five-Panel Doors Unlock Style
Contrasting hardware on a five-panel door really stands out. This juxtaposition between the stark white palette and bronzed hardware is a breath of fresh air.

5-panel Doors...We would like the 5 panel doors throughout our home. Contrasting bronzed hardware on a five-panel door really stands out. I don't know what doors cost but I found Masonite Crown MDF 32 in. x 80 in. White 5-Panel Doors at Home Depot for $217 each...maybe you can get a builders rate?
