After living in an earthship in New Mexico, this couple wanted a more practical, net-zero energy home for their retirement. A modest 1400sf, clerestory windows provide daylighting and passive solar heating. The house is super-insulated, per Passivhaus standards, with triple pane windows, 90% efficient heat-recovery ventilator for continuous fresh air, and a mini-split heat pump for heating when it’s needed. A single row of solar photovoltaics provide sufficient energy to make this home net zero on energy.

re-purposed materials obtained for free. The goal was to create a prototype to see what works and what doesn't, firsthand. The journey was rough and many valuable lessons were learned.
