Our team set out to design and build a primary residence that met the client's humble goals for their (5-person) family while also achieving Passive House certification. It wasn’t clear from the start whether or not going for certification would be viable given the budget restrictions and bank-loan financing limitations. We worked very closely as an integrated team (Architect, Builder, Project Management, Owner, CPHC (chris Miksic) , PHIUS rater (Karen Bushey), various subs, and vendors) throughout the design and planning process to incorporate cost-savings measures and provided numerous estimating “interventions” to stay on track. There was a significant effort to value engineer what we could, to ensure there were funds available for the desired energy goals. Each member of the team contributed towards getting the project over the finish line and ultimately Passive House +2018 & Source Zero certified! Winner of the 2021 Best of the Best, Healthy Home Award for Residential New Construction from Efficiency Vermont.

The stained glass panels for the doors were designed in prairie style fashion. This look was made popular in the early 1900’s by famous architect Frank Lloyd Wright. Wright was known for creating designs that took the entire room into account as opposed to focusing on one aspect. The geometric shapes and thick leaded lines that you see here were very typical of his designs. Though prairie styles originated nearly one hundred years ago, they continue to remain popular today among art enthusiasts and have a powerful influence on modern architecture. You too can bring the look of Frank Lloyd Wright artwork into your home with prairie style stained glass from Stained Glass Denver. We work with local artisans that are very talented in creating a wide range of stained glass designs. Not only can stained glass enhance the physical appearance of your home, but it can also increase its resale value and provide your family with privacy. To learn more about what we can do for your home, just contact our office. We look forward to working with you on your next home improvement project.

213 FEET OF PRIME BEACHFRONT PROPERTY ON HANALEI BAY. *The Faye property at Hanalei was purchased by Hans Peter Faye in 1915. Faye was a prominent Kauai sugar plantation manager and a member of the elite society of the day. He and a few others were privileged with the opportunity to purchase prime Hanalei beachfront lots at auction. The intention was to build summer beach houses on the best section of the Bay. *In 1915, H.P. Faye cleverly combined two of the original Hanalei Beach Lots, resulting in twice the land area and beach frontage of current comparables. Skillfully selected by Hans Peter Faye in 1915 at a time when Hanalei Bay was wide open. The location offers shelter, consistent offshore trade winds, sandbars, and amazing views. H.P. Faye had the vision and the finances to purchase not one but two lots in the best part of the Bay. The property has views both mauka and makai, and is perfect for swimming, parties and the beach lifestlye. *Building on the property may be permitted for up to 9,000 sf, allowing for additional structures, pool, & larger buildings(compared to average 4,500 sf on other Hanalei beachfront lots). *Today, almost all of the lots on Hanalei Bay have been subdivided and many of the original large estates are gone. Gone are the days of expansive,open spaces at Hanalei. The Faye property is one of a few parcels that retain the large, open feel and the ONLY ONE THAT IS AVAILABLE FOR SALE.
