You drive an EV, why have a home that’s an Edsel?
-
As astonishing as it may sound, most homes are still designed and constructed with methods largely unchanged from the 1950s. If your home is built to these standards, you’re likely to be disappointed. Compared to what’s now readily achievable, it will be prone to stale air, drafty, noisy, and only marginally comfortable despite high energy use. Moreover, if you follow the typical architectural approach, you risk cost and time overruns, and ending up with a design that causes regret.
Don’t settle for a home that’s obsolete before you move in - you deserve more than mediocrity!
WHAT WE DO
architecture for the future of california
Graham Irwin, AIA, NCARB
We’ve been working at the forefront of high-performance architecture in California since 2008, combining a passion for design with technical expertise in a quest to create the world’s finest homes.
Whether you’re starting from the ground up or remodeling, we can help turn your dreams of a fantastic, modern home into a remarkable reality. You’ll have a legacy home that contributes to a bright, healthy future for the people you love, and the places we all cherish. A home you’ll feel great living in and feel great about owning! Our flagship projects meet or exceed Passive House (Passivhaus) performance, the world’s highest standards for health, comfort, and efficiency.
“In addition to efficiency, the main goals for our home were a comfortable indoor climate, reduced outdoor noise, and remarkable air quality. We’ve been rewarded with all four.”
“The biggest problem with our home is that we’re never really 100% comfortable anywhere else.”
“We find ourselves asking, ‘How on earth did we get by with anything else?”
