Concord Green Home
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.

shellabella Great thank you. I love this kitchen! Was 3'6" the base of island or the total size of the countertop? Thanks again!

What Houzz contributors are saying:
added by Becky Harris to Houzz Tour: The Concord Green Healthy House
"The kitchen is the living center of home life these days, a place where everyone loves to spend time," Horowitz explains. "We wanted to embrace this and celebrate the kitchen space. Thus, it has the cathedral ceiling, the views outdoors, and can be used in a number of ways." Flexibility was built in, providing places for cooking, drinking morning coffee, gathering, having a meal or doing homework.The cathedral ceiling gives this kitchen an open feeling, making it seem larger than it really is. The skylights and glass doors let the light from the southern exposure flood the space. These doors also extend the kitchen out onto the patio, providing access both physically and visually. The large custom Belgian linen pendants make a style statement that stands up to the scale of the ceiling, yet blend with all of the natural textures and colors in the room. Floors throughout the first floor are heart pine.
added by Vanessa Brunner to Idea of the Week: Two-Arm Lights in the Kitchen
Although they're normally used as wall-mounted lights, Tharp decided to install these fixtures on top of the cabinets. The wiring went into a gap on top of the cabinetry where the gabled roof stops. These lights not only highlight the cabinetry, but if you pull them forward, they illuminate the countertops below perfectly. See more of this house in Concord, Mass.
added by Becky Harris to 10 Wonderful Farmhouses
This healthy home in Concord Massachusetts abuts a town green rather than a farm, but many touches inside and out add farmhouse charm. Learn about all of the passive house and healthy moves the designers made when planning and building this home
added by Amy Renea to Stepping Up the Scale
Looking for hanging fixtures? Try simply using a classic lampshade, sized up for impact, for your island pendants. The neutral shade and linen material keep them humble.
