Energy Efficient Custom Home - Bend, Oregon

From the outset, this home was designed with energy efficiency in mind. Additionally, a steep and narrow property created constraints that added challenges and opportunities for the architectural design response. By using structural insulated panels, the design sought to provide a rapidly constructable home that would provide the utmost comfort while reducing energy consumption. The orientation and pitch of the roof was optimized for installation of solar panels, further reducing the carbon footprint of the home and providing the potential for a net zero energy usage.
