PASSIVE HOUSE

The devil is in the details. Dualing Architects from the Pacific North West explore clever solutions to common, yet tricky details. Builders, architects, industry professionals and homeowners are interested in learning more about Larssen trusses, insulation below footings, window installation, inverted roofs, and exactly what a Passive House looks like. We will look in-depth at various Passive House assemblies and the envelope science that make the air-tight, thermal-bridge free design so effective. With municipalities leaning towards requiring the involvement of Architects or Building Envelope Professionals for all Passive House projects, to facilitate the permitting and construction process, the simple and intuitive envelope science of Passive House has become a more important aspect of our practice than ever... providing innovative design solutions with a clean modern aesthetic since 2005. Our experience includes single family, multi-family and mixed-use projects.
