2014 Green Home Tour - Saturday April 26 - 11am to 5pm

This Saturday is the NW Eco-Building 2014 Green HomeTour. Four of our projects are featured on the tour this year. The tour is free and open to the public. Hope to see you at some of the projects.  http://www.nwgreenhometour.org/map

The Mosner Residence (4827 Beach Drive) is one of two adjacent waterfront houses that we designed (the Binder residence next door isn't quite done & is not on the tour).  It's a really simple design with some spectacular views, a very successful natural lighting strategy, some interesting use of color and specialty finishes.  5 star built green. Features include a 6kw active solar array, heat pump HVAC, on demand hot water, high efficiency envelope featuring rainscreen siding, fluid applied WRB, spray foam super-insulation. Taber will be stationed there all day to answer questions and sign autographs.

Marion Green (918 14th Ave) is our latest courtyard townhouse project. It isn't quite as far along as we had hoped at this stage, but we'll be there with some explanatory boards to help flesh out what's there. The project has generated a lot of interest from buyers, with two of the five units already sold. 4 Star Built Green. Neiman will be on-site here all day. http://www.mariongreentownhouses.com/

Howell Green is a 7 unit townhouse project, also centered around a shared community green space. Units are oriented to take advantage of the project's southern exposure for passive solar gain and good natural light. 4 star built green. http://www.howelltownhouses.com/
