Downtown Bend High-Performance Home: completed February 2009. Stucco finish, contemporary style 2450 SF home with 8" staggered 2x4 wall construction. The 8:12 pitch south facing roofs feature (4) 7' x 7' evacuated tube solar hot water panels tilted to 65 degrees and (12) flush 39 x 52" Sharp Module photovoltaic panels. The use of reclaimed wood, deep overhangs to the south and stained concrete slab floors with radiant heating punctuate the high-performance design.
Alfalfa home: Rastra Block Wall Construction, completed late 2006. Stucco finish, contemporary style 2400 SF home. Large glass areas, deep overhangs to the south, concrete slab floors with radiant heating, PV panels and 12" Rastra wall construction optimize the design. The central volume allows clerestrory light into the living area. The slab floor is stained in a low-VOC finish and retains warmth collected through the south-facing windows.
